Pretty new to EE, I am creating a site similar to desert island discs - but for crisps for a friend and as part of my uni assignment.
I'm using EE 2.5 and Safecracker 2.1. I have created the safecracker form based on this tutorial by Ryan White http://www.venveo.com/articles/view/understanding-safecracker-for-expressionengine.
Now the form works a charm from the front end. This is the setup:user_entries. Status group with status Pending created and assigned to the group. In members I have created an annonymous user and assigned access to the above channel to publish from front end (status still pending). This is all good.
I have a template group called entries and inside this I have the user_entries template where the form code resides. I also have a confirmation template to redirect users upo successful submission.
Now every time I test this, an entry is created - but in the pages section, which is fine. I can go there publish the page and all is good. What I can't figure out is how do I output all the new entries (after status change to Open) on the front end to another page called say Previous entries or similar.
Here is my code for the Safecracker form:
{embed="includes/html_head"}
<body>
<!-- Super Container for entire site -->
{embed="includes/masthead"}
<!-- Super Container -->
<div class="super-container full-width">
<!-- 960 Container -->
<div class="container">
<!-- CONTENT -->
<div class="eleven columns content">
<h2 class="title"><span>Submit your 8 choices!</span></h2>
