Jan Komárek	Thursday 29 July 2010 3:22:37 pm Hello, one of my customers have free ad section on his site, where users can advertise their used used construction machinery and now he would like to monetize this section of web and give users way how to highlight their advert. Another posibility is that publication of advert will be payed so in this case i think it will be similar Now my question. I know howt to give users to permission to create their own content like its now. I know how to dont allow them to create content, but I have only a vague idea how to how to let them create content but publish only if they pay. Or how to change advert to highlighted advert if they pay fee. And I am not sure if its correct. I think I have to do some workflow similar to selling pay per download products . Am I right? Soon I will have to do this. So I will be grateful for any advice, link, idea or anything else what could help me. Best regards, Vebloud

Or you could just alter the object state after user payment. eZ Publish Certified Developer: http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/376924 Twitter: http://twitter.com/tcv_br
