Is it possible to set up a workflow in the admin side ? Or shall I actually set up an external website to do so ?

I want to do some article approval system, so I thought using the built-in powerful editing system of ez. But I don't where/how shall i play with it, to build the approval system inside of it.

regards,
johann

yes, this is cool, I have read it before posting here. But this an approval mechanism for things that are posted from the website itself, but not from ez admin side.

I want to do the same, but in the admin side. Meaning that I have users, they log into ez. Create a new article and press "publish". And this article has to be reviewed. So, here goes the same mechanism as in the exemple of the guestbook, but inside ez itself.

Maybe this is not possible, or maybe I misunderstood the way workflows are working... I dunno.. hence my post here.

Hi,

There is no difference except the interface between the user and admin site: they should operate on the same content, have their workflows common, ... it is just the "menus" and interface that are different (and perhaps the obligatory login)
