Is there a known-solution or known-theories for giving users access to change only one story? This would be a way to allow businesses in my directory to update the listings, once I 'prime' them with some sort of startup content.

Example:
I would love to give a login/password to the owner of Drawing Board, so s/he could edit this listing I started for them. They are a lot more artistic than I am, but obviously, I cannot have them touching anything except this one story.

I know there is a discussion going on here about building a business directory module. However, I also see other people are already doing this with existing modules. Could I fairly easily build a directory like this: http://www.pastigo.com/sites-amp-attractions-2.html using Drupal's existing modules? This directory was done in Joomla! using Mosets Tree. I've also been looking at using SOBI2 with Joomla!, but it's not updated yet to run with J! 1.5 and not sure when that will happen. Plus, I'm trying to see if there is a better way to organize the data.

I wonder if any of you would like to set up the directory for me ... of course I would pay for it.

If anyone wants to do it, please let me know how much would you like to get paid for the job.

Thanks

OpenResort - www.openresort.org started out as a business directory, and has evolved into a booking engine. For the purpose of a business directory our module works great. Check it out.

I am trying to build my first Drupal directory. Building a basic directory using CCK and Views seems easy enough. I am have trouble with figuring out the best way to charge users to post certain nodes.

What I ideally want is for some users to be able to pay to get their entry to the top of the list. So, this would mean that the node would become "sticky" once the user has paid a fee. I can't seem to figure out a way to do that.

I am going to try to create a Business Directory using Dupral and existing modules.

I'm not experienced with Dupral (I've only played around a little bit), so I know it won't be easy.

I'll follow the advice here and the other threads that talk about it. I don't have loads of time to do this so it’s going to take a while. Hopefully this thread will help others too.
