Hi Guys,
FLEXIcontent stable is finally out and available for download. As my main clients are government or corporate websites, we decided to introduce an exciting new feature: the enhanced version control www.flexicontent.org/developers-blog/fle...trol-for-joomla.html
This has never been implemented before in any Joomla component and was THE missing feature to build collaborative web publishing system.
To take the full power of this solution, the FLEXIaccess Access Control (ACL) component is recommanded (even if it's not mandatory) www.flexicontent.org/features/flexiaccess-acl.html
All new features are listed here: www.flexicontent.org/developers-blog/fle...uilt-for-joomla.html
Enjoy

Now that's innovation.
Instead of just copying the features of Drupal's CCK, and bringing them to joomla, FLEXIcontent does something new and useful
The enhanced version control is one of those things that makes you wonder how you could live without it before

Yes it looks great indeed! The only thing I miss is the frontend submission
It's really essential to a website like mine. There is just NO CCK for Joomla that has the function I need. And they aren't even very advanced...
All I need is to be able to create custom fields (drop-downs, text area etc...), frontend creation of categories (they are artists in my case), frontend submission of items.
Then I need a menu item that lists all my categories (artists) paginated and with a ALPHA index. When I click an artist I get a list with all the songs by this artist that has been submitted. When clicked I get to the actual content view (the articles or in this case lyrics and chords).
And of course, nice SEF URLs and a good search!
Doesn't seem to be possible yet

It's quite possible and (semi) easy work with Fabrik ( www.fabrikar.com )

Hi!
Funny that you mention Fabrik as I am using it on my site right now. It is a very powerful and easy to use component. It is quite unsexy though. Very bad URLs etc.
My URLs looks like this:
www.MYOWNSITEDOMAIN.com/chords/details/3/3/4192.html
Not very attractive... I want it to be like:
www.MYOWNSITEDOMAIN.com/chords/artist-name/song-name.html
One neat thing is that I can use it with my old NON-Joomla! tables which contains my artists, songs etc. No need for migration actually. But as I said, it's quite clunky, bad URLs and bad compatibility with other components/plugins/modules.
One thing that might work though is to use Fabrik to create a frontend submission form for FLEXIcontent! Do you think that would work?

Nice.
Yea, Rob was going to address the URLs, but with so many rewrite extensions, Fabrik leaves that function for others.
I restuctured a site using Fabrik to have individual menu items decicated to a prefiltered table, rather than one page with one table that you filter, if that makes sense....could then make the sexy URLs you seek.
Example:
www.bidlesstravel.com/search-winning-pri...-hotel-bids-new-york
www.bidlesstravel.com/search-winning-pri...otel-bids-california
Food for thought...
