How I see it is ordinary people can submit stories without image but story admins can submit with images (using the integrated GL imageX). The problem is I have granted my co-admins story admin rights so they can add images BUT their grammarspelling is horrible. Is there anyway to have stories submitted by the story admins queue so I can review, modify and post and designate others to do the same? Thanks!

Short answer is no. We hope to build in support for a spelling package in GL2.---The reason people blame things on previous generations is that there's only one other choice.

It's much worse then just spelling, grammar, the whole bit but the content is good. So no posting stories with images to any sort of queue?

If you trust these people enough to give them story admin rights, then why don't you just be upfront and tell them you'd like to review/edit all stories before they are published live on the site? Two sets of eyes are better than one. They can easily save their stories as drafts for you to review. A lot of people are poor writers. Those who are usually know it and would probably welcome some editing help. This helps them learn how to improve their writing and also makes their articles look better.

Something I'm going to look into for my site, and it shouldn't be very hard, is to force the "draft" flag to be "true" except for my user id. That way, the admins will be able to only save as draft, and then I'll be able to review and publish. This shouldn't be more than a couple line hack in submit.php (I think), but I haven't tried it yet. -rob.

THat would be awesome! If you figure out how to do this, PLEASE post the results here..
