Can this be done with Flexi Content ?

- The user can add articles in all categories
- the user can only see his own articles
- he can edit his own articles
- he can download his article as pdf
- the pdf framework/template can be designedin beforehand by admin

I know that I can do most of it in Cobalt 8 - but they do not provide the possibility to design the pdf framwork.
That, on the other hand, can be done in RSform PRO - but in that extension, the user cannot see all his articles/forms in one place.

I'm hoping to find an extension that can do this.
Thanks.

Hello

- at Global configuration or at FLEXIContent component "configuration" go to "Permissions" TAB and

1. Give to the usergroup
"Create"
"Edit Own"

2. Do not give:
publish (thus all new content will remain unpublished)

3. Create a menu item "My items" and name "My ..." make it public or registered (if you make it public and people click they will be asked to login / register)
- the users by default can see their content items even if they are not published

4. For making a page PDF install some 3rd party extensions


- If you want to use backend items manager, then enable show items in "Editable categories" in FLEXIcontent component configuration, but you will need a little more configuring to use backend ...
