Hi

I am creating a website where users can submit articles that are approved by a moderator for publishing. Instead of the comments, I would like to add functionality to discuss them in the forum, since the forum is going to be where the bulk of the traffic is.

1) Is it possible to automatically create a forum topic with the users submitted topic and using the article as the body when the moderator approves the article?

2) If 1 is not possible, the more cumbersome way of doing this is to have the moderator manually create a topic when they approve an article. How can I get the "comment" link to redirect to the forum topic if i do this?

Thanks

Drupal has a module for doing that in D5I am not aware of one for D6. If you can do it in D5 you might want to look at this module. Otherwise you might have to look into creating a custom action that creates a forum topic when node is approved.
