[XFA] Document/Manual/Tutorial/Article Writer

[XFA] Document/Manual/Tutorial/Article Writer [Paid] 2.8.3

No permission to buy (€12.00)
Maybe there could be some manual chron query that could backup the articles in case of destruction ? (For now)

Well I guess you have you db backups for that.

Hello ! :)
I want to put in place on our site a process for collaborative content creation. We want to create some highly-elaborated contents (beginner user guides, encyclopedic documents) that need to put together energy and knowledge of different writers. Our contributors spend most of their time to explain again and again some basics and we really need to gather this knowledge somewhere, in a synthetic and organised presentation.

The idea is to have a tool allowing both to elaborate and publish these documents (once validated).

People involved in documents creation projects may access to work-in-progress documents ("sections" ?) for which they opted to contribute, modify parts of the documents, receive alerts for modifications made by others and see the detail of these modifications. They would need to discuss about the project in dedicated threads.

Once a project is ready to be published, it may be copied and published to public. The work-in-progress project would still exist and evolve, until a 2nd version is validated, then published (updating the first one), and so on.

I thought initially to wiki-like tools (Vaultwiki, Xencarta, etc) but it seems to me that this xfa extension is much more user-friendly and brings better features for readers as well.

Yeah would be sections, though there is no handling of contribute opting and notification of alerts.
Currently collaboration is at document level, ie. you add contributors.

Is it possible to list a single Article in different categories?
Is Related or Similar Articles option is available to show on article Page?
 
With this addon is possible to import from a normal thread? I have a board on my forum dedicated to tutorials and step by step guides which I would like to convert to xfa documents
 
This addon is quite important for our association. We use it to write down the agenda for our monthly meeting. Everybody can add their contribution.

This might look a small addon, but it's very handy when you need to collaborate. I am using many other addons and themes from ThemeHouse. However, I can always reconsider and select some other products which maybe are supported more professional way.

This manual addon might work for you.
Xencarta might also work.

There should be no rush to Xenforo 2. Ifs a feature neutral rewrite
 
Is it me or Custom BBCodes don't work with this add-on ?
Is there a way to add custom BBCodes to the editor, but only for documents (and sections eventually) ?
 
That would not be active elsewhere ?

Answer is as is no, it may need some custom code to do so.
 
Thanks for the reply.
Would a Conditional Statement which would check the url or something be sufficient ?
 
I never got deep into checking how bbcode are introduced into the code in xF so hard to say.
 
I just set the permissions of each category to be only visible for the administrators, but when I visit the forums as a guest, the tab is still here.
EDIT: Found a way around. Thanks.

Hey there, it's me again.
Is there any way to set a default document icon when you submit a document in a specific category ?
