Allow subscribers to create one article that would be the basis of a directory

1 year 9 months ago - 1 year 8 months ago #329638 by OEVAtechnology
Hello,

On our site we have three types/groups of subscribers.

We would like subscribers to one of these groups to be able to create one Joomla article which can be used a business directory listing elsewhere on the website, using a simple article category display.

Can you recommend a quick way of enabling this by using the CB and CB Subs plugins?

We don't have a way to limit the number of articles they create. CBSubs can't really add features to other extensions that they don't already have.

The best way I can think of to do this is to repurpose CB Blogs since it can be configured to create Joomla articles and has support for limiting the number of blogs they can create.

An alternative is to probably give them a usergroup that gives them permission to use Joomla's create article page and when they create the article remove that usergroup. This would require the help of CB Auto Actions.
