I want to predefine title_alias. How can I do that? e.g.
{$ TITLE_ALIAS} = "{$ AUTHOR_ID} - {$ TITLE}"

Thanks you advance,
best regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,

Use our free metatdata plugin for this: https://documentation.form2content.com/f2c-extensions/joomla-plugins/87-f2c-metadata-plugin

We have updated it with title alias template too. I believe the documentation is in the plugin description.

Thanks for reply. I already see that. But I can solve my problem with this documentation.

How can I pass values to fields in the form template?

The Goal is to set the URL from the article to:
user_id-firstname-lastname

just paste this {$ AUTHOR_ID}-{$ TITLE} in the title alias template

OK so you add that in the template

{$JOOMLA_USER_ID}-{$FIRSTNAME}-{$LASTNAME}

*asuming these are the names of your F2C fields

thanks. I'm sorry I don't understand you. Which title alias template?
Accepted Answer Pending Moderation
BUT to follow URL rules you might need to use Smarty to remove capitals and different characters ....
