How to Show Breezing Form Data in Front End With Content Builder

Hi Ezent,

let me list all necessary - and even the tiniest - steps to create an administrative panel with ContentBuilder + BreezingForms, I will really describe all steps that I think that might be useful for other readers as well:

- Install BreezingForms (at least 1.7.3 backport 3)

- Install ContentBuilder

- In BreezingForms, create your form as usually

- In ContentBuilder, open the views

- Click "New"

- In the new view's first tab, choose the source (com_breezingforms)

- Enter a name for your view

- Enable email notifications

- Click "Advanced Options" button

- Choose "Backend" in "Display In"

- In "Show Columns" check "Select", "Edit", "Publish" to display the administrative columns

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose the BreezingForms form you would like to connect with this view

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Check "Editable" for elements (in BreezingForms you usually want to edit all fields)

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose "Edit by Type"

- Check "Include In List" for all elements you would like to display in the list

- Open the Content Template tab

- Check the "Create Sample" checkbox

- Open the Permissions tab

- Uncheck all permissions in Backend panel and check "List Access", "View", "New", "Edit", "Publish" and "Article Settings" for the Super Users group --- do _NOT_ use any of the checkboxes in "Force Permission On Owner", as this would be for a different use-case.

- Uncheck "Limited Article Options"

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- CLOSE YOUR VIEW

- PUBLISH YOUR VIEW

- Hover over Joomla's Components => ContentBuilder Views and you should see the view for your custom admin panel.

- Open it and you should be able to add, edit, delete, publish records and edit the underlying article settings.

Hope I covered everything but this should be it. The whole process is very similar for the built-in form builder, except that there you would need to create an Editable Template (which is given here already with the BreezingForm itself).
