some wishes for the new version

[ipig]

Hi, Torsten

below are some of my dreaming features of the new version, hope they are interesting to you :

1. News
News archieve, with paging , and 'sticky news', this is useful to use a piece of news to give a breif introduction to new users;

2. content editor
i have to say , the current content editor is not so good,
maybe you can add support to the third party editor like 'HTML Area',
one of the feature i am eager to see is the full screen mode of the editor
(somehow, sorry, i got the feeling that you dont want phpfaq to be a content managment system, but i think phpmyfaq has the potential to be a superb cms)

3. authorization
the faq records should have some kind of access control.
personnally i like the acess control of Palmpilot ,we can have 'mask' record, title only record and normal record;
admin can determine how to show content to visitors, say:
1. mask : visitor can see the record under category , but not the content, even the title is invisible to them(this maybe is not so useful)

2. title only: visitor can only see the title(question) of record
i think this is quite an important feature;

thanks and best regards.

HTMLArea is included in 1.4.x!

this is planned for one of the next versions.
