Description

This works well enough as intended.

But what I would really like to see is a way for the administrator to force users submitting content to the site to use one specific license.

Yes, I know it seems heavy handed, but for me, I want my entire site to fall under to aegis of one license (and one license only). Giving the users the ability to chose any ol' license willy-nilly doesn't meet my needs.

Feasible to code an UI this, or would it be better if I get to hacking at the .module file for this?

Cheers,
//TB

Good Idea - for some projects like wikipedia this is really vital. For others, where many people post different articles it might be useful to make it differently:

let the site admin configure the module, and tick each license that should be available.

So if it was a commercial site or you hate nc, non-commercial licenses could be disabled. etc..

taking this is as feature request for future versions.

You can try out Creative Commons and Copyrights computed field and node type which I just posted for adding your own licences. Then apply one of the many node access modules to secure the granunalrity of each license you create.
