1. Set it up so that non-registered users cannot view the article manager.
Make the Menu that Articleman is published as "registered" - Click on the menu item and choose access level "Registered"

2. Set it up so authors can submit (upon approval)
All registered users can submit. Regardless of the usergroup they belong to. Just make a link to articleman available to them.

3. Set it up so Admin can not only submit but approve as well.
Go to Administrator backend, Components, Articlemanager, Settings
 There choose the Restrictions Tab. You will see a select with "Allow users to aprouve articles" label. Select The groups you wish to have approval rights. Click save.

Re: Q & A - Article Factory Manager
« Reply #1 on: June 10, 2009, 10:14:09 am »

Q: On the front end approvers can only publish is that correct?
If I want editors to reject and edit and save the article for further
editing they need back end access right?
In other words, If I give someone editor permissions they can see an
"authors" submission, open it, edit, and publish it. But they can't save
it back to the queue for example. Is that correct?

A:
- articleman editor group can approve, reject, publish (set the editors from backend)
- articleman editor group have access to all articles (including other authors articles)
- no backend access needed if you are in the above group - you have access to approve menu (where you can reject too)

Q: Hot to add a menu to Article Factory Manager on front end?

A: As every Joomla Component in the Menu Administration.
You can add it in an existing module or create another module first (from the Menu Manager select New - and after publish it's Menu Module from Module Manager ).
   You can add the default task (the article listing) directly the Articleman type from the "New Menu Item" options list.
  Or you can add a specific Article Manager task as an Menu Item External Link where you insert the needed url (ex: index.php?option=com_articleman&task=new ).

Author Ressource Box image
« Reply #4 on: January 06, 2010, 04:23:10 pm »

Q: Resourcebox locate big author image. I'd like to locate small (tn) author image.

Big author image root
/images/comprofiler/126_4b43951132a39.jpg

Small author image root
/images/comprofiler/tn126_4b43951132a39.jpg

İs it possible to locate (tn)? I use CB Integration.

A: You need to edit file "components/com_articleman/class/mainclass.php" around line 685 "$file = "images/comprofiler/".$resbox->file;"
This line has to be replaced with $file = "images/comprofiler/tn".$resbox->file;

Thanks Erik,

I've more questions about this topic.

The author image is on the left side of resourcebox text. And default right margin value of image is 0 (image is too close to resourcebox text)

1-) I'd like to locate author image on the right side of resourcebox text (like ezinearticles.com do)

2-) And then I'd like to change the default left margin value of image?

How can I arange this?

unpublish date to never
« Reply #6 on: January 27, 2010, 04:13:51 pm »

Q: How do I set the unpublish date to 'never' as is possible in Joomla back end?

A: Edit file ../components/com_articleman/articleman.html.php, around line 1309
delete: readonly=""

By doing this, the fields can be then edited with the "start/end publish"
For the articles that dont have to expire, the end date field should be left empty.

saving configuration
« Reply #8 on: March 10, 2010, 10:08:27 am »

If you cannot save the configuration in the component backend
use a FTP client and assign 777 rights to the files
"config.php" and "restrictions.php"
which are located in the "components\com_articleman\config\"
directory.
