I want to make a form that any visitor can fill out and it creates a new document instance of a document type that I've made.
What I really would like was if I could let visitors create the new document as if they were an editor working in the Umbraco backend. But I don't want them to log in to Umbraco. I guess what I want is some kind of "transparent" login... and a page that acts like umbraco backend but isn't... :)
Is it possible to somehow make a public "editor page" using the same components that the umbraco administrator is built upon?
Like if I could just make a page with the content inside the red square in this picture:
Public form for creating documents

Any ideas as how I can accomplish something like that?
You can use doc2form which will take your document type and allow your visitors to enter information in and it will be saved as a node/page. http://umbracoext.codeplex.com/releases/view/5251.
Here is some more information on it: http://www.blogfodder.co.uk/post/How-To-Get-doc2form-For-Umbraco.aspx
