Hi all,

Is there any way to get the flexi-access and flexi-content combination to behave like a wiki?

What I would like is:

users can edit each other's content entries.
The edits are moderated for approval.
The content items show a list of users that have edited the content item.

If this could work, you would have the first actual wiki component for joomla.

Thanks

Yes you can, but in backend only. The version control and approval combined with flexiaccess will allow you to do that.
Basically you'll have to create two groups in flexiaccess Contributors and Validators and give the publish permission to validators only
You can also have different scopes and different contributors groups to allow them particluar categories only.
Cheers,
Emmanuel.

Hi Emmanuel,

thanks for your quick response.

Is there anyway to show the edits/revision history on the frontend? So that an article shows the users that edited the article?

Thanks,

Jason

Out of the box, no. But this could be achieved quite easily be developing a custom field for that our with a code snippet in your item template.
