Pre-install questions

[davidb]

I want to use RV Article Publisher to make the article database on Millionaire Geeks more dynamic. I have a few questions about the product though as far as what it can and can't do.

1) can membership be restricted? We don't want people signing up and posting random articles on our site. We would like to eventually make it an option for people to pay to submit their articles onto the site given they fit within our categories.

2) We want there to be author descriptions at the bottom of each article (preferably in the form of a PHP include) that is basically being called from a seperate file. This isn't a must but we would really like to have it.

3) We love the fact that the articles are going to get their own url. Can we make it so that people can bookmark the articles on sites such as de.lic.ious and digg.com? I believe there are buttons that you can include on your page for this.

4) How easy is it to integrate this into our existing layout? We'd like to keep the layout found on our article page (http://www.millionairegeeks.com) with a search box in the blue window to the right of the categories.

Not right now. But you can approve the articles of paid members only. Intially this script was written for our FAQ database. So not much control over members access right now.

I have these features in my 'to-do' list in next release.

You can edit heder.inc, footer.inc files as much as you want. Also usee css file to manipulate font, colrs etc.
