more cooler edit thoughts

first off, I’m having a great time!

Can we:

1. have all embedded links programmed to open in a new browser tab or window? I don’t want to have folks leave Cooler when they click.

2. is there a way in EE to see all the html coding. Sometimes I like to play fancy but I couldn’t figure out how to do things like change font color within a post. I don’t mind hardcoding but wanted to know if I could do in the EE window.

3. is there a way to manually re-order entries? for instance, on the News sidebar, I want to be able to control which order things are shown. Do I have to just re “publish” the piece?

4. at the bottom of pages, can we put in links to “next”. Even though I want to limit the number of entries per page, I wanted readers to be able to go to the next page of entries?

5. can we make the titles of the entries Larger. An issue I’m noticing is that the entries all sort of run together and I want to “divide” them more. Can we stick a hard rule in between them or something?

6.can we create a couple different categories of folks:

MEMBER- has permissions to post Comments, post to Blog, post to Author bio and post to Reviews. (no access to stories, poetry, submit, etc.)

REGISTERED-may only post to comments and manage their own profile

CREW-has permissions to post to everything but not superpowers to change site. I want my staff to be able to go in and banish someone but I don’t want them messing up any templates. But they’re all pretty computer savvy.

okay, back to postings.

thanks.
