SUPPORT REQUEST:
I'm trying to come up with a website where many useres will be able to start an eJournal of their own.
I have created a Vocabulary called "Journal Sections" with 2 choices: "Featured Articles" and "Book Reviews". This vocabulary is compulsory for a node type "Story". Also, in Sections and Topics I have also renamed "default" into Fection Title with 2 topics "Featured Articles" and "Book Reviews". However, neither the new vocabulary nor the "Sections and Topics" configurations seem to be making any diffference.
The problem is that whenever a journal editor clicks "Add new Headlines" he sees all nodes that have been ever published on the website. It can be 100s and 1000s. He can see FAQ, Usernodes, Blog entries and many other things that he is not supposed to see. And it is very confusing for each editor to sellect exactly which particular nodes should he include in that particular issue. What I want si for editors to see only "Story" content types!
Note: that there are many eJournals and many editors on the same site. What I want is for only a specific Node-types to be displayed when they click "Add new headlines".
FEATURE REQUEST: Yet another problem is how can I prevent one eJournal from "stealing" from another? I mean when an editor sees a list of nodes there is nothing really preventing him from adding other nodes, which were not intended for his journal. In other words there is no mechanism for an editor to see only the nodes that were meant for his journal only. One way of doing this would be to have the name entered for each newly registered e-Journal to automatically generate an identical taxonomy term within a Vocabulary called "Journal Titles" that is in turn compulsory for all "Story" content types , for when authors send their articles. Provided that the above Support Request also works, in this was the Journal Editor will see only the nodes that were meant for his journal and none of all other nodes. This would be both practical as well as user-friendy. Would this be possible?

As for listing all nodes, I think that if you edit each 'Section', that you need to fill in the 'Time frame:' to limit the selection. I use '30 days'.

yeah, but that doesn't solve the problem at all.
This module works for a single journal... so that the administrator is also the editor.
What I'm proposing is to make it so that it can help many users to start their own eJournals. And that means increasng user-friendliness

Actually, the problem you listed was that all nodes were being listed. Does the field I pointed out not prevent that?
The rest of your post, as you mentioned yourself, was a feature request or two, or three...
As for those features, is there a reason blog doesn't work for you?
Also, check out my post in the queue regarding OG-ifying this module. Maybe something like that would work for you?

I am having the same issue, but hopefully I can clarify the problem through screenshots.

On the "Sections and Topics" page (http://example.com/admin/epublish/sections), under "Automatic selection rules" I have checked off only 2 content types, "Image" and "Story".

On the Edit edition "Add more headlines" page (http://example.com/admin/epublish/headlines/eid), I see all posts. Including those whose content types are not "Image" or "Story".

news?
I have the same problem.
also if you select only a type of content, when you go to add a headline, you see all nodes of the website.
