How registered user adding new content from the Joomla frontend?
Q: What do I have to do to give a registered use the ability to add new content from the web site front end? I created a test user and then logged in but don’t see any way to add new content, such as a simple article. There must be something I have to do to enable this?
A: Create a New Menu (say User Menu) and add a menu item of the type Article Submission Layout and choose the access level to be Registered. Go to the Module Manager and publish the User Menu in the appropriate module position.
Joomla! Sample Site/Data has an example of User Menu.
