Intro to Editing Entries

-you, as project team members, can enter & edit & delete any entry. we can put password protection on this, or just keep it hidden from the public, as it is now.

-by default, all new entries are made active (viewable from the public website). If no expiration date is set, then that is set to 6 months (can be changed _x_ months) from date entered. If no post date (the date the entry should be viewable) is set, then the post date is set to today.

-I set a few entrie fields to be required. I can change these if necessary.

Public view of these entries

-we'll have read only views of the entries that we'll show our web visitors. maybe display different sections on different pages--we can filter by village....we have flexibility.

-All past or inactive entries are hidden from public view automatically.

-web visitors can enter or suggest new entries online, and when they do, an administrator (me at the moment--any volunteers?) is emailed a copy of that entry. The administrator can then leave the new entry as is, or edit it, or make the entry inactive.

-By default new entries are made active immediately--we can change this so all entries need to be activated by an administrator if that's necessary.
