Form2Content CCK

Create Joomla native articles using custom submission (input) forms!

There are many Joomla components which allow you to add content to your Joomla website in creative ways. Few however alow you to do this via the front-end while at the same time use the native Joomla article rendering mechanism (com_content). This ensures that third party components, plugins and modules which use the Joomla section/category structure will work with Form2Content.

Using forms to generate articles is also referred to as using a Content Construction Kit.
