Hi all!

I know that there is a feature for registered mbr’s to submit stories to the website. But, I’m not sure how to activate that feature. Does anyone know a quick & easy way to do that???

Thanks in advance!!!
🙂

Hi Menalto,

When the Quick Start package was installed, it does not include the “Submit” feature for contributors? If not, exactly how is this added to an already existing site.

Thanks Menalto,

I was able to add it. However, it also encourages the use of and “anti-spam” module or something but no URL where to get it.

I have integrated mamblog into my site to manage content in a blog style, heres a snippet of its usage where it shows users can submit content.

<blockquote>Usage

Once installed you will have a new menu option called Mamblog under the Components menu in the administrator page of Joomla!. From this menu you can administer the component, read information, change the configuration etc.
How to link to specific blogs

You can reach the blogs of certain users by either of the following URL:s:

http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mamblog&task=show&action=user&id=89
http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mamblog&task=show&action=user&id=Username

Either use user id or username to link to a user.
How to link to the users own blog

The stable version of Mamblog 1.0 adds a user menu link to the users’ own blog. If you don’t want to re-install the component you can add this function yourself by adding the following as an url menu item:

http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mamblog&task=show&action=showmyblog

They can also get a link to their own archive, it is very similar and looks like this:

http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mamblog&task=show&action=showmyarchive

Important information on the Mamblog section

If name of the Mamblog section has been changed the blog entries won’t be automatically removed if you delete the component. Don’t add any categories either, it is unnecessary and might cause problems.
Write a blog entry

When Mamblog is installed a new entry called “Write a blog entry” is automatically added to your user menu and this is what users click on to add new entries. You can add this link anywhere on your site if you want, it looks like this:

http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mamblog&task=edit

Comment system support

To allow comments to blog entries you first have to install a separate comment system. Mamblog supports both AkoComment by Arthur Konze and the now obsolete ComboLITE/ComboMAX components by Phil Taylor.</blockquote>

I have AkoComment installed and users can submit their own content as well as choose if they want the content submitted commentable or not. .
