Great plugin. Saves a ton of time for my new member site. I was wasting time every morning checking to see if any posts needed approving. Now I get emails. I can also share the admin tasks with others because you can enter multiple emails for posts waiting publication.
I decided to create a website for the members of my organization, a speakers association. I wanted the site to be for the members, not just a site that the members would join.
Why would this be necessary? What I’ve found is that even though it’s extremely easy to create a WordPress site, there are some intrinsic problems that every techno-phobe faces.
First, the mere installation process, no matter how simple, is enough to cause paralysis. The second is the pressure of maintaining (and updating) an entire site by oneself. And finally, adding advanced features, like podcasting, is too daunting for many.
I thought WordPress could be reduced to the extreme basics for the members, and they can all contribute to the site, and leverage off it’s success. I describe how I did this, and the features I included in a post on my site.
