    Hello, i am looking for a plugin for Wordpress that works like a script... i am making a site for my friend that needs that people can add their own house and then my friend approve it or not.
    I am using wordpress for this...
    Any piece of help would be nice.
    THanks!!

    Why not create a subfolder and install a directory on it?

    Is this the kind of thing your looking for? www.free.thehealthzone.co.uk

    This is setup so users submit articles or data and then the admin approves it.

    Richie_N's idea would be the most sensible approach, as it's unlikely you will find a decent, fully-featured directory plugin for Wordpress. I'd personally do as Richie suggested and install phpLinkDirectory in the new sub-folder.

    Not my site, i think the owner is a member here.

    He's certainly a member at www.davidcastle.org/BB/ - Look out for Onelife. (I'm sure if you submit a few articles on his site) he'd be happy to help.

    There's not a decent directory plugin for wordpress, i've personally searched for hours not too long ago but to no availm unless someone out there recently released a plugin your best bet would be to use a directory script like esyndicat.
