In K2 I've set integration with CB but I'm not able to write any K2 articles from Frontend.
If I want write k2 articles, then first I must login from K2 login module, but in this manner I lose any CB features.
Can I resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance

CB has no control over K2. Please review K2 documentation on how to properly submit frontend articles. CB only displays K2 articles that belong to a user via CB Articles and nothing more. You should not need the K2 login module.

In the K2 documentation it is written that it is need K2 login to write an article in frontend.
If CB plugin allows to display the k2 articles this means that someone has written these articles.
I am the only user of CB that must write articles from the frontend?
If no, I wish only to know how I can do this, only some advice.
Thanks in advance.

I've no idea why K2 login is needed. They just extend the Joomla user object and use Joomlas user session so it shouldn't matter what login you use. You just need to add a Joomla menu link to the new article page in K2, login, and click that link. I don't know how K2 works so I can't really suggest anything further except try various things out to see what works.

Your advice is the first thing that I done, but the link points to a null page.
Only with a login with a K2 login module it is possible to see a link in the user menu (automatically) and with this I can open a popup where to write article.
I've read somewhere that both CB and K2 teams are working about a better integration.
Hi,
I could help on this. You just have to activate the Cb integration in K2 params.
But there is a limitation : your users could create article from frontend but not edit the un-published one. You coul use the cb_artile for having a tab with all k2 article wrtite by a user and when the user is logged he can edit the publisged article.
There is a big lack with the limitation on unpublished article.
