Workflow Plugin for Movable Type

One of my personal side projects has developed a need for a more robust workflow system with Movable Type. This would include, but not be limited to:

  • transferal of ownership of an individual entry from one author to another
  • restricting the ability of an author to post non-Draft entries.

Those, at least, are the two particular requirements I am working from initially. As needs arise in my project, or requests are made for general functionality for the plugin, I will incorporate them as best I can.

I have created a dropcash campaign for the workflow plugin. Upon completion of that campaign, I will release a version of what I am developing to the public.

I like the idea for sure. The ownership transfer part is something I have felt was needed in many of the blog tools for awhile, but felt I was one of the few.
