Anyone using Joomla will agree that a lot of power lies within the plugin system. Easily add video's, image galleries or forms using any of the many 3rd party extensions. Here are some examples of integrating them using Form2Content.
Sigplus simple image gallery plus for Joomla is a well documented gallery plugin. It's great to use, has many effects and can be very easily integrated into Form2Content templates, thereby automating the gallery creation.
The Yootheme WidgetKit is great for adding effects to your website but has some limitations when it comes to using F2C to 'add' content to the galleries/tabs etc. Because the WidgetKit uses a component to add content, only the Media Player, Lightbox and Spotlight can be truly integrated into the F2C Template.
The essence of this code is that Form2Content 'delivers' an array (list) of Joomla article title and ID's which can be selected in the submission form. This article list is than visualised as Related Articles (in the current article) using NoNumber Articles Anywhere extension.
Showing a location on Google maps within your article can be a great feature for many types of content. Using the Form2Content Geocoder field type and Mike Reumers Google Maps plugin this becomes very easy.
RSForm (Pro) is a great and popular contact form extension. It can also be integrated into Joomla articles using their rsform plugin. In this example we will show a generic way of adding it to your F2C generated articles.
In this example we will alow users to submit a YouTube video ID. We use the AllVideo plugin from JoomlaWorks to render the video in the Joomla article.
