Add, Edit and Delete Topics and Articles

In this section of the tutorial you will learn how to use MX Kollection 3 features to build the main pages of your content management system, both in the front-end, and the back-end. You will create the following elements:

• For the Front-end:
  • A menu for the front-end, linking to pages that present lists of articles
  • The actual pages that display the lists, and the article.
  • A main page which ties together the pages and functions listed above
• For the Back-end:
  • You will create the page that lists the articles, also allowing you to delete multiple items, as well as displaying links to edit or add an article.
  • A page that contains the insert/update form, allowing you to enter the actual article.

To build these pages, you will use the following products:

• MX User Login - to prevent users from accessing the administration pages
• MX Includes - to combine all front-end pages in a single file.
• NeXTensio - to build the back-end list and form of article.
