Introduction
A complete article submission and approval system for Joomla!, Article Factory Manager offers an approval oriented alternative to the default J! article submit form, allowing webmaster to filter any unwanted articles with a simple and clean interface. Approvers can reject articles with predefined reasons from a specific menu which displays relevant data regarding the article.
Administrators can set up their website to submit in multiple categories from different users with ease, have one approver for a single or multiple categories, have more approvers for a single category, and let users choose their approvers from a specific category, let writers manage their resource box to reduce workload, all of this is possible with the latest version of Article Factory Manager.
