Hi,

I've add a new class. This class is a form where the users adds content. I want to show in frontpage a list of content that users have added in this form. How I can do?

Thanks,

David

Hi David,

To display the contents in frontpage, you can use either dynamic block of manual block. If you use manual block , you just only need to manually select the nodes from content tree to display in particular block .

If you you dynamic block , you can fetch the nodes using an ezflow fetch class with parameters passed to the fetch class.

For better understanding. I would suggest you to read through block.ini and zone.ini in ezflow extension.

So that you can customize blocks and zones , also it helps to fetch contents from your custom class created.

Regards

Romeo

Yes, but I want to show the information added with this form. This information doesn't appear as a node. It's like a feedback form.

I put a form on the front-end. Users fill out and send the information and I want to show the information on the home page.

If I create an article (for example), the item is saved as a node, then I can select to display it, but the result of this form doesn't create a node.

There is an undocumented fetch function 'content', 'collected_info_list'. It has optional parameters 'object_id', 'creator_id', 'user_identifier', 'limit', 'offset', and 'sort_by'.

Also see the documented content fetch functions 'collected_info_collection', 'collected_info_count', and 'collected_info_count_list': http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions

Ok, but... first I should create a block on the main page.
How I can create a block that is not default?

Thanks
