We are migrating from 1.0.15 to 1.5.14


On our 1.0.15 site, there is a User Menu option called "Check In My Items" to check in any articles the user currently has checked out. It works fine with the following URL:

index.php?option=com_user&task=CheckIn&Itemid=15


Is there an equivalent in 1.5.14?

Thanks in advance!

Joomla 1.5 has a Global Check-in

Thanks - but I don't think that is what I want (is it?). The Global Check in was available in 1.0.15 as well.

I want a check in for each user to submit their documents.

I don't have much experience with 1.0. If you mean a page where users can create articles and submit them you would create a new menu item. Then select type Article/Article Submission Layout.
You can then set its access level to Registered so the link is only visible to people who are logged in. Depending on their level of access the articles they submit will be posted or queued for approval.

Not sure we have this in 1.5.

I have a teacher's site where I do NOT want them to go to the back end and do a tools>>Global Check-In

If they forget (which they will) to save or cancel an edit, how can I make this a menu item?

The code is in /administrator/components/com_checkin/admin.checkin.php

But if I put this in an external URL, I get

Restricted access

How can I have them run this from a menu item?

Thank you.

Peace & Joy,
Jeff Honeyager
