Here's my setup. I hope this helps.
Is this a possible setup and combination of the crosstec plugins?

Hi Ezent,

let me list all necessary - and even the tiniest - steps to create an administrative panel with ContentBuilder + BreezingForms, I will really describe all steps that I think that might be useful for other readers as well:

- Install BreezingForms (at least 1.7.3 backport 3)

- Install ContentBuilder

- In BreezingForms, create your form as usually

- In ContentBuilder, open the views

- Click "New"

- In the new view's first tab, choose the source (com_breezingforms)

- Enter a name for your view

- Enable email notifications

- Click "Advanced Options" button

- Choose "Backend" in "Display In"

- In "Show Columns" check "Select", "Edit", "Publish" to display the administrative columns

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose the BreezingForms form you would like to connect with this view

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Check "Editable" for elements (in BreezingForms you usually want to edit all fields)

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose "Edit by Type"

- Check "Include In List" for all elements you would like to display in the list

- Open the Content Template tab

- Check the "Create Sample" checkbox

- Open the Permissions tab

- Uncheck all permissions in Backend panel and check "List Access", "View", "New", "Edit", "Publish" and "Article Settings" for the Super Users group --- do _NOT_ use any of the checkboxes in "Force Permission On Owner", as this would be for a different use-case.

- Uncheck "Limited Article Options"

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- CLOSE YOUR VIEW

- PUBLISH YOUR VIEW

- Hover over Joomla's Components => ContentBuilder Views and you should see the view for your custom admin panel.

- Open it and you should be able to add, edit, delete, publish records and edit the underlying article settings.



Hope I covered everything but this should be it. The whole process is very similar for the built-in form builder, except that there you would need to create an Editable Template (which is given here already with the BreezingForm itself).

Thanks Markus,

the little option "Edit by Type" was unchecked and the option "Limited Article Options" was checked in my setup. That's solved my problem with the error when I click on "New". But now this error appears when I hit the submit-button of the form.

In your list the part of connecting a form to a custom table is missing I think.
What do you guess:

- create a custom table in phpmyadmin and connect it with BreezingForms by the Integrator
- or create a table by the CB databases and connect it with ...?


I think your setup list will be much useful for other users.

Hi,

can I see the complete error message and a screenshot of your current permissions? I think it is just a setting there.

I left Integrator out, because it is not really a feature that plays with ContentBuilder but with BreezingForms. You wouldn't need an Integration for ContentBuilder, it will pull the data from the main BreezingForms storage.

Hi,

the advantage of Integrator is the isolation in a separate table for database administration. So I can export only this one table and not a BF table.
So I have to try it with Integrator, but thats a new topic...

So here is a screenshot of the eror message (excuse the german content in this english post )
Although Joomla shows n error - CB saves the data?!
Updating the data throws no error, only a new entry.
Is this a problem with my template?!



Best regards,

Hi,

there are 2 usual suspects for the 404:

1. view not published
2. Content Template is empty

Is any of these zutreffend?
