Allow users to edit articles from public site

Hi,

I’m trying to allow users to edit some custom fields of an article from the public site. The users are registered on txp users database and logged with ign_password_protect, then i setup a form with mem_public_article. The problem is that everytime the user submit the form mem_public_article creates a new article. There is a way to just allow users to edit a field and update the article?

Something like the two last question of this thread

Have a look at mem_simple_form.

I have used it for the password-protected area of a website where logged-in visitors could change the value of custom fields which sounds similar to what you want.

Thanks Springworks. I will try to figure out how to allow the user to edit the article by using mem_simple_form
