    Hi,
    I was wondering how do you make something like
    Ahoutmeloud did?
    I was thinking of allowing mu readers to share their own ideas also and in exchange they get a backlink to their site or something.

    Is this possible?

    Not sure if this is what your looking for but you can make it so that when a user signs up, they automaticlly go into the category of "contributer".. this means that they can make a post which is submitted to the admin before revision, and you can choose to publish it or not.
    I think the setting for this is in settings > general

    if you are using Wordpress as your article site, don't forgot to add user profile plugin to extend the user registration form.

    This is actually Very easy to do. You can add users to your blog and then determine of you want to make them an admin, author or contributor. If you make them an author, then you can select them when you publish the post. I just started this on my blog http://tycoonblogger.com Take a look and you can see the author box for the contributing author.

    Hi,

    Can anyone please tell me step by step instructions on how I can add a multi author/ revenue share on my wordpress site? I've been trying to figure out how to do this all day.
