First time with Flexicontent 2.0.2 r1680

Hello everyone,
as is evident from my post that I'm a newbie (24 h) of Flexicontent.
Even though I've known him very little I quickly realized that it is a very powerful component and as the name implies, very flexible. Thank you Emmanuel! Coming to the point of my post, I say that I want to take Flexicontent for a site that I had already made in Joomla 2.5 with another CCK but it does not offer the flexibility of FC.
In the site I would like to create a form that must be filled out by registered users, this form will be visible to public users and commentable by JComments.
I got lost in the reading of the features and some post but nonetheless escape me some very important details.
I have created a Type, the fields and a template, I have properly given the permissions to registered user in the Type " created " in configuration I've permitted items in the Items / Categories (inherited): create - Items / Categories (inherited): edit own - Items / Categories (inherited): delete own - Fields: edit values
After that I assigned to a menu voice " item submission form with its category".
Via the menu item, after authentication as a registered user, I've access my page and see my fields select text, calendar etc. image, they work, but in the form which I attach screenshots, appear many other things I want to hide.
I think I'm getting the logic of the operation and would love to have a flowchart of the basic operation of the FC.
Thank in advance who will give me the initial push to use the component.

Hi Micker,
many thanks for your prompt reply.
Ok the override is the right way, in first for save the customization.
Through changes of the file form.php I can change the look of the page. Is possible change or create a new file form.php by backend of Joomla with for example Flexicontent --> Templates ?
At me Is not clear, I've created a new Type with new customized fields so I've set in to the new type the template created in Flexicontent so what I must do for display the new template?
I've try override and link the menu item to index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=items&layout=form&task=add but the form is the same, of course because I'v not change form.php at the moment.
Sorry for the confusion but I can't understand the use of Flexicontent templates.

you can override form.php for administration
apply same methode but in administration/template/your template ...
but it's recommend ...
why you have create field that you didn't wants user can fill ?
try to manage permission ACL
in your field left part you can choose to hidde field in form front-end backend ...

Hello, please note that for FRONTEND item submit form you can

1. Simplify it to remove various uneeded stuff (DO this in FLEXIcontent Component Configuration, just click the configuration button). Also note that you can "simplify" the FRONTEND item form differently per Content Type for this go to your content Type, and there there is a parameter 'slider' with same parameters for simplifying the form

2. About unregistered users you can allow submission in "Submit menu item", but they will not be able to edit it later !

3. Upcoming version v2.0.3 (or v2.1) has both FRONTEND/BACKEND form fully TABBED , with styling updates , that make it more professional looking and attractive, while probably more user friendly too.

Regards

Hi,
About the use of the Flexicontent templates this night I've understand a little bit more as you can see in screens hot n.1
About the ACL there is not any problem in fact i've set it, so the registered user can make a new content, Edit / delete own, see the list of his contents by the menu flexicontent "My Items" an edit they.
About hide field I'v hide description fileld in front-end and it's ok for my needs, but I've tried to set my content type as you can see in the screenshot 3 but I still see General
I need :
1. A input form in front-end where the registered user can digit only mine customized fields except the title field ( now are display as you can see screenshot 2 the General )
2. A output form in the front-and where the public user can see the items created by registered users and comment it (I do it and work almost as I need but is not a problem can do the changes needs )
I'm sure I'm missing the obvious, your component and already very frendly, me I'm dumb :shock:
Many thanks in advance and sorry for your lost time
