This other weblog tool (starting with a W and ending on ordpress) owes part of its popularity on the sheer abundance of (third party) extensions. The PivotX extension system is quite powerfull, but without basic documentation hard to grasp.

To make PivotX even better for larger websites, subchapters would come in handy. A more flexible pageoverview

An option to let a page to not appear in the menu, so you can make auxiliar pages (legal info pages, landpages for mailing, etc...).

We should be ableto send pings to update trackers like weblogs.com.

Blogs with multiple users can recieve comments on post, but they receive all comments on all posts. It'd be nice to be able to just receive comments of the articles YOU wrote, so you'll be able to keep track of discussions and conversations on posts written by yourself.

In a multiple user/publisher weblog there currently is no way to specify a default category for each user. When my current users post an entry (none) is selected by default. Being able to specify a default category in the Edit User screen would make entry posting much easier for novice users!

Currently the Lifestream extensions pulls in information from twitter and the like, but you can't _send_ updates to Twitter.

Why not treat pages the same as entries? Commenting on pages would be nice.

OpenID support would enable people to log in with already-existing credentials. I don't see why I need yet another login/password combination for my personal blog. http://openid.net

If you set up bigger websites you have to create lots of pages with identical templates. A clone function would be handy.

To extend the capability of the PivotX even more, developing an ldap module to intergrate user accounts with other portal and web-based systems is the way to go.

Only allow comments by registered users, with registration requiring admin approval. First, someone would have to register for an account and verify their e-mail address. Once this stage has been completed, the account will have to be activated by the site admin who can eyeball the details supplied. Admittedly this will put off a lot of people commenting, but will give site admin full control over who is allowed to comment (such as only allowing friends to comment).

If asian language like chinese search problem can be solved, there will be plenty of users in asia.

I think we should add a weblogconfig setting "allow comments". It makes sense to me that you can define the comments settings per weblog.

In blogs with thousands of entries, an option to seach the items within a given date range would be very welcome.

Wouldn;t it be awwesome to be able to create custom entry types, and be able to choose what fields are used in that specific type?

Example: A custom type 'Product' with fields: price, size, description, image.
