If you hack admin/story.php , User 'test' can make story in the topic which owner is 'test'. Pull down topic lists are only topics: User 'test' have EDIT right.

and Moderator can create a topic for user 'test' by setting number, by hack to
<public_html>/layout/<theme>/admin/topic/topiceditor.thtml.

Please login http://demo.geeklog.jp user:test password:test,
and make story.

To supplement what Ivy said above, I'll write about the way to ensure stroies are editable by non-Root contributors. You may say this is just what the journal plugin is made for, but the plugin doesn't work with register_globals off. One of Geeklog.jp members suggests the way to allow multiple bloggers who don't belong to the Root group to administer articles easily. As you know, when you create a story, you can choose ANY topic you have read-access to. In case you are on the Root group, this is natural. Well, then, suppose you are story-admin and topic-admin but are NOT on the Root group. You can choose ANY topic you have read-access to as well. But once you have posted a story, you can no longer edit or delete it, unless you have write-access to the topic, which is seldom the case with non-Root users. This might be a bit embarrassing to those who are not familiar with Geeklog. In order to deal with this, how about modifying admin/story.php? As for Geeklog-1.4.0, if you change the line around 657,
Text Formatted Code

COM_topicList ('tid,topic', $A['tid'])
 
to
Text Formatted Code

CUSTOM_topicList ('tid,topic', $A['tid'])
 
and in the lib-cusutom.php, add the following:
Text Formatted Code

function CUSTOM_topicList( $selection, $selected='', $sortcol=1 )
{
    global $_TABLES;

    $retval = '';

    $tmp = str_replace( 'DISTINCT ', '', $selection );
    $select_set = explode( ',', $tmp );

    $result = DB_query( "SELECT * FROM {$_TABLES['topics']}" . COM_getPermSQL( 'where', 0, 3 )
            . " ORDER BY $select_set[$sortcol]" );
    $nrows = DB_numRows( $result );

    for( $i = 0; $i < $nrows; $i++ )
    {
        $A = DB_fetchArray( $result, true );
        $retval .= '<option value="' . $A[0] . '"';

        if( $A[0] == $selected )
        {
            $retval .= ' selected';
        }

        $retval .= '>' . stripslashes( $A[1] ) . '</option>' . LB;
    }

    return $retval;
}
Much the same as COM_topicList, except that
[code]
COM_getPermSQL()
 
is replaced with
Text Formatted Code

COM_getPermSQL( 'where', 0, 3 )
 
In addition, modify part of <public_html>/layout/theme_name/admin/topic/topiceditor.thtml from
Text Formatted Code

<td align="right">{lang_owner}:</td>
<td>{owner_username}<input type="hidden" name="owner_id" value="{owner_id}"></td>
 
to
Text Formatted Code

<td align="right">{lang_owner}:</td>
<td>{owner_username}<input type="text" name="owner_id" value="{owner_id}"></td>
 
We wish the above hack will be merged into GL's core code.

That's what I've always wanted.Big Grin

Has this been patched to the 1.4.1 yet?
