Display an article blog by a button on the profile

6 years 11 months ago #294213 by rkreijveld
Hello all,

For blogging we have developed our own blogging solution with Form2Content. This way, we can have the users write their own blog articles but also limit the number of images (maximum 3) that a user can add to a blog article.
These blog articles are stored in default Joomla articles in the category "Member Blogs".

In the profile we created a tab the now shows the CB Blogs option (see attachment). What I want is a button in the profile that I can add a link to.
The look would then be the same, but when you click in Blogs you would go to a page that I can specify myself.
Or a tab that shows a module. In that module I can then show a list of all articles of that user.

How would that be possible?

These blog articles are stored in default Joomla articles in the category "Member Blogs".

Then they should show up on the Articles tab if they're properly set as the owners of the articles. They could also show up under the Blogs tab provided by CB Blogs if you've adjust its top level category to "Member Blogs".

The look would then be the same, but when you click in Blogs you would go to a page that I can specify myself.

You can't have a tab that just links to a page.

Or a tab that shows a module. In that module I can then show a list of all articles of that user.

That's doable using a Custom HTML field with prepare content enabled under its parameters tab. Next you can use Joomlas loadmodule usage as shown below.
