User menu -> CB Blogs and restrictions on the blogs

User menu -> CB Blogs and restrictions on the blogs was created by solferry
Dear,

I was wondering, is it possible to have an option in the User menu to have a direct link to create a blog? Currently it is perfectly reachable via the profile page, but I prefer to have a menu item just for them to easily create a new blog.

Also, when they do create a blog, there are some possibilities I want to disable for them to choose.

For instance:

Access: Public/Registered

I always want to have this public and not allowing my users to set this for themselves.

Also the "Owner" field I would to not show.

Can I set this?

Thanks

Create a Joomla menu item of menu type Community Builder > Plugin then select CB Blogs for the plugin. Next set Function to "New Blog".

Also, when they do create a blog, there are some possibilities I want to disable for them to choose.

For instance:

Access: Public/Registered

I always want to have this public and not allowing my users to set this for themselves.

Within CB > Plugin Management > CB Blogs > Parameters > Defaults you can set the default access to Public then disable that parameters display.

Also the "Owner" field I would to not show.

No, it's only shown to CB Moderators and it's for moderator purposes only. It lets you change who the owner of the blog is via user id.
