You can place editpanels in your frontend:

TS-Setup:
config.admPanel = 1

myEditPanel = COA
myEditPanel.10 = EDITPANEL
myEditPanel.10 {
    allow = toolbar
    label = Create/Edit Page
}
myEditPanel.20 = EDITPANEL
myEditPanel.20 {
    allow = new
    newRecordFromTable = tt_content
    label = New Content Element
}
myEditPanel.30 = EDITPANEL
myEditPanel.30 {
    allow = new
    newRecordFromTable = tt_news
    label = New News Item
}

page.10.marks.ADDRECORD < myEditPanel

(make sure your adminPanel is opened and properly configured in user ts
config for non admin users)
