Hi everybody,

I want a connected user can create a particular article with a form.

Example: The goal is anything like to list inside a module the author’s book inside his public profile. So the author-user can after signin add his new books using a form. I want his new book is linked automatically with his public author’s profile.

To link this new article with the user’s article profile (I enabled the bridge for user storage) I use the “article related field” inside the form.

Using the “live value” parameters of this field I can for example get and store automatically the user_id of the author: live=user and Live value=id.

But I don’t need the author’s user_id, I need the id of the user profile article linked with this user.

Does anyone know an easy way to do that using these live value parameters ???

In advance thanks for your help.

You could copy Article created by field for that purpose (it is a field of type user)

Hi Klas,

Thanks for help, this field matches my needs. Just is it possible to record it automatically (in a hiddem field in the form using the contexte) for exemple using the live value parameters ?

Hi,

you can set it's live value, the same as with other fields, in your case it would be User - id
