[HELP] Integrating Joomla with PHP and MySql Requirement. I have this project to do for a local Training class, who has the following requirement: A website with login facility using CMS ( I chose Joomla !) The website should have a database for every students mark list in that institution, so that it could be accessed from the front end. In the front end, he wants a FORM, which might ask the students to fill in the required details (like Student ID/Student Name etc.) and should be able to search for their corresponding marksheet. Now the 2nd and 3rd objective above, could be easily achieved using PHP and MySql. But I don't know how to integrate the 2nd and 3rd objective with the Joomla CMS. Is there any way to do so......any module.....any plugin that can do this ?? Thanks, evk_87
You may need to buy a plugin for the forms, but not for the personal links. Similar to a static website, you can choose a series of links that are accessible from only one page. Use the menus to make personalized login pages that direct to their respective line of pages. Choose the access levels from the respective menus. Be creative with the names/titles of the pages, so that your students can not "guess" the pages of their peers.
You can use ChronoForm easily to achieve this. It's free components. You can create your own form with your own field and link it to the frontend. When someone fill your form, the data will automatically populates in your backend and you can delete or modify it. Try it and it will works.
