- Send an email to the item author, asking for aproval.
- Send an email to the site admin, asking for aproval.
Should have TWO checkbox: one for the author aprovation and the other to the admin aprovation.
- If author aprove the comment, the admin can reprove it (matter off slangs, etc.)
- if the autor DO NOT aprove de comment, the admin cannot aprove it.

About articles

When an author (with no backend access) submit an item, if auto-publication is off, the system must:
a) Be marked as "to publish" our "draft" (or whatever).
b) Alert (by mail) the admin, that can change status to "published" ou "reproved" if the mark is "to publish".
- If reproved, alert (by mail) the author (It´s necessary a "observations" field). The author can edit (according observations) the item and re-submit it.

hey..
i have made a recipe website on k2..but dont know how a user can upload recipe or new article on my website....plzz help

it would be highly appreciated if reply is sent on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

thnx in advance :)

To submit an article, you must enable the k2-login module, instead of normal joomla login module. It will show a link "Submit content" since the user is logged.

Them create an user group (on K2 backend) with "add items" and "edit own itens" options options enabled.
The user, under JOOMLA must be "author" at least.
Finally, attrib the user (under the k2) to the created group.

(sending to your email too).

thnxxxxxxxxxxxxxx so much for helping me out..i'll definitely try this method ..if something goes wrong then will take ur guidance :)

Hi again Antonio...i enabled k2 login module as u told me..but when i m making a test user account..it says

"""Your account has been created and an activation link has been sent to the e-mail address you entered. Note that you must activate the account by clicking on the activation link when you get the e-mail before you can login."""

but there is no MAIL RECEIVED on my mailbox...is there any option that disables sending activation link when a user creates account??

Yes, there is.
But is´nt a K2 issue, but Joomla.
Under Site/Global configuration/System uncheck New User Account Activation option.

In this menu you also can set New User Registration Type as "author" to avoid setting it manually later.

thnxxx again sir ...i have made a test account...n there is a link showing SUBMIT ARTICLE...is there any way to change it to ADD NEW RECIPE??
n when i m clicking on add new article..it show all the info like METADATA....DATE OF PUBLISHING, AUTHOR ALIAS, SHOW ON FRONTPAGE etc...but i dont want all these information to show to USER who will add recipe to my site

do u have any solution to this prob?

To change "Submit Article" by whatelse, you can edit the language file en-GB.com_k2.ini.

To remove fields in the form, I thing (I´m not sure) you can edit the /administrator/components/com_k2/views/item/tmpl/default.php file. I suggest you backup it before try editings.

where can i change the LANGUAGE file from?

Sir, i have changed the SUBMIT ARTICLE to ADD RECIPE :)

now the prob is with how can i change the extra information shown when user add recipe
