            masterpage='article.php'
            mode='create'
            enctype='multipart/form-data'
            method='post'
            id=author

Hi,

You can actually find this explained in the advanced tutorial (https://www.couchcms.com/docs/advanced-tutorial/).

Quoting from the mentioned tutorial, the 'notes.php' template (the equivalent of your blog template) had a relation field defined as follows (https://www.couchcms.com/docs/advanced- ... notes.html) -

Code: Select all

<cms:editable
    name='note_owner'
    type='relation'
    has='one'
    masterpage='users/index.php'
    label='Owner'
    required='1'
    no_guix='1'
/>

Next, in the databound form, this is how the logged-in user was set as the author of the note being created (https://www.couchcms.com/docs/advanced- ... -view.html) -

Code: Select all

<cms:if k_success>
    <cms:db_persist_form
        k_page_title=frm_name
        k_page_name="<cms:random_name />"
        note_pad=frm_pad
        note_owner=k_user_id
    />   
    ...
</cms:if> 

As you can see, the "note_owner=k_user_id" statement above is the key to your solution.

I am sure you'll be able to adapt this to your use-case.
Hope it helps.
