pay-to-publish

Hi guys

I have a group of artists that are promoted by one manager(me). I want them to sign up on the manager's site (a drupal core site) eg manager.com and be able to create their own music stores. eg http://manager.com/artist/tom, http://manager.com/artist/amy or http://artisttom.manager.com, http://artistamy.manager.com

The registration page should have two options

1. artist
2. fan

while registering a username should be chosen that will be the permanent url for the artist or fan

artists will have the "artist" before their name in the url

Hello everybody,

seems that Drupal still lacks an out-of-the box solution to bill advertisers for publishing listings on a site, so i am actually challenging and puzzling to set up a recipe that could do the job.

Figuring out what Coupet asks on his previous post on point 1 ("Charge users for each listing they place or each node they publish") could be relatively easy and is the starting point to achieve what follows. But moreover, what i dream is to be able to set up the well-known standard workflow present in almost any respectable e-commerce site, where exist different "levels" of listings, each of them containing incremental informations and visibility in the site.
