What happens when a post is reported?

Can brief synopsis and a copy of the reported post appear in a special moderator forum?

Or are moderators emailed, or PM’d?

Are there any plans to officially support a WYSIWYG editor?

Who are the best EE skin, template developers?

Is there an easy way to insert images from the gallery into blog or forum posts?

Is there an easy way to upload new images into a blog or forum post and have them appear in a gallery?

For not for profit organizations, do you require the commercial or non-profit license?

When a post is reported you get a screen that allows you to say why its being reported and include a message. The message, selected reason, and the actual post are emailed to the forum moderators.

Are there any plans to officially support a WYSIWYG editor?

This is being investigated but nothing has been decided. Its a much discussed issue on these forums and if you search you and find the many pros and cons on it.

Who are the best EE skin, template developers?

EE doesn’t have skins/templates in the terms you are referring to and as such there are no “best EE skin” developers. Rather there are web professionals that use EE. We have a Pro Net you can browse or a Job Board if you prefer that professionals find you.

Is there an easy way to insert images from the gallery into blog or forum posts?

You can use Relationships to do this between weblogs and galleries. The forums don’t work in that manner. But inserting a URL to the image is always an option.

There are some options depending on what you want the end result to be between weblogs and galleries but not images uploaded to the forums.

Non-profits are welcome to use the Personal license for projects.

So no kind of papertrail is made. For large communities with a dozen or more moderators and dozens of reported posts a day, is there a way to see what posts have had action taken on?

I just imagine if the reported posts were posted to a special moderator forum, it would be easy to see which ones have been taken action on I suppose, rather than getting email spammed.

The job board just looks like a forum where people pay to find professional services for your product. As for the particular vernacular, I’m essentially looking for someone to take EE, take some concept images I’ve created, tell me what will work, add cinnamon, tell me what wont, then bake at 350 degrees.

Explain relationships, I’m a lost as to how relationships work.

Specifically I’m interested to know if “Not for Profit” companies are eligible for the Personal liscense. Note, there is a difference between “Not for Profit” and “Non Profit” and my “Not for Profit” community site is looking for a CMS/Forum/Gallery solution.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Garthic:

You would need a custom solution for this.  You could, for instance, set up a moderator account with an email address going to a moblog, and have that moblog point to a weblog for storing that information.  Then you have a paper trail, and it can be done pretty much out of the box.

The Job Board or Professionals Network is definitely the right way to find these types of folks.

Here’s a great explanation

Yes, as long as the Site is not there to support a business, then you can use the personal license.  See this kb entry for more explanation.
