UPDATE EDITOR SIGN UP
The editor sign-up form is well into development. At the moment, both the email you receive AND the email your applicant receives upon succussful submission of the application form are TEMPLATE BASED! This means you can fully customize your messages. I have included a full set of tags to put into these customized emails, as well as demo templates to boot!
Example:
---------------------------------------------------
Editor Application Received
---------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your interest in Mysite.com.
Your application has been received and will be reviewed.
Please allow up to 3 weeks for consideration and response. If you have not been contacted after this time, you may re-submit your application. You might be contacted at any time for clarification of your details.
If you wish to withdraw your application or change your application details, please do not submit another form. Contact a senior editor at se@muysite.com.

The sign up form is ONLY accessible by registered users of your directory, and if an unregistered user attempts access, they will be immeditaly re-directed to the user login page
As I mentioned eariler, this is only Stage 1 development, and other than storing this information in a pending table (which you can view through your included table editor), the rest is then up to you. But, since this is pretty useful already, I will be releasing a the next update with the work so far included.
IF YOU WISH TO TEST THIS ON MY SITE (WHERE I ALREADY HAVE IT UP AND WORKING): please create an account with your same Gossamer Forum alias, then login and click on the "become and editor" link after login. This will give you a better idea of the whole process, as it stands. You will notice there is no template for the successful submission as yet, just a basic message. PLEASE, IF YOU DO SUBMIT AN EDITOR APPLICATION DURING YOUR TESTING, BE SURE TO SAY THAT ITS A TEST ON THE APPLICATION FORM. Otherwise it just takes me more time to sift through bogus applications. Notice, if you try to access the editor sign up page without being logged in, you are directed to the log-in page!
PRICE CHANGE
The price of Editor Monitor will be going up once the sign-up feature is implemented. I expect by $10-$15. Existing owners will not be affected by this raise of course. If you are thinking of buying this plug-in, you will get in cheaper by buying before these changes take place.
