Documentation for Extensions developers
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.
Status: startedYou're right. This is very important.

implement a 'mail comments on post per author' function
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.

Implement default category setting per user
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!

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

GUI for custom (overwriting) language files
It would be nice to be able to create custom language strings from the PivotX interface that were used instead of the default language files. These strings could be added/edited within a simple text-based UI (so long as the user knew which strings they were editing -- i.e., by referencing the ori... more

(Extra) Field Manager
I was thinking about extra fields, and how it really makes more sense to have a general manager for them instead of plugins that basically just duplicate each other's functionality, and the only difference is in label and the limit on data type.
