Quickcontent ComponentLanguage

Add new articles, sections and categories within minutes! Create corresponding menu items in a course. Fill articles with "lorem ipsum" for layout testing.
When we set up Joomla! projects in our daily work, we missed a tool for speed up the process of creating content and menus. So we developed this plug&play AJAX component and hope you will enjoy it, too!
Requirements: Joomla 1.5+ , PHP 5.2+ (json enable)

+++ NOTICE: both, creating CONTENT and creating MENU ITEM will take place in ONE STEP! ... there are NOT two steps creating content / menu item. +++

Good idea for Developers, but would be VERY useful with some changes for general non-tech users.

Publish to menu option is a great addition that is missing unexplicably from the Joomla core.

Problems
- location in Components pulldown menu instead of integrated in the Article manager section confusing.

- can't unpublish from menu unless you go to menu manager.

- doesn't use the standard publish / apply buttons, so unclear at first how to publish article.

- after publishing article, there's no clear way to see other articles or link back to a main component page.
NOTE: Using core Article publisher, after you publish an article you taken to the Article manager page.

I would LOVE to enable the publish to menu option here and add it to the core functionality of the core Article publisher.

I like this idea, it should be actually in the core of Joomla !
BUT.... unfortunately it is not working for the frontend what is a really pity, since my customers are not writing their articles in the backend.

Anyhow thank you for this extension, it will be perfect if accessible from the frontend too, but maybe its not designed to be like that.
Owner's reply

thank you, Quickcontent was designed to create new content at the backend only. Not as helper for customers but as helper for webworkers and mass content producer to save time at their daily work. The next step in evolution could be not only to create content but to edit content with "ajax-speed"

i waited for a component like this
Quick.. clean..
Save time, and well planned
I like it mostly when making new websites for clients who need training using joomla! administration.. they just add contents with this nice extension quickly and safely..
keep the good work.

Very nice component! Helps to save a lot of time and clicks when starting a page or adding content. Will use it at all my pages, thank you

Really quick and had no problem at all using it. But after creating a section, category and an article for the first time, I was not able to assign the next article to the menu item created using Quickcontent extension. I changed it using 'Menu Item Manager'. An option under 'Add Article' may help do that quicker.

Thanks for a very good extension :-)
