auto page creator with attributes

Permalink
i'm creating a business directory where business's fill out a form 'name, address, logo, etc" along with check boxes telling what categories their business would fall under (auto dealer, pizza, etc). when they submit the form i need a page to be created under each category that they selected, and have all the attributes showing on the page. the business would have a profile page that they could update the attributes. "coupons, specials, etc". Is this something that can be configured through c5 or does it require a lot of customization? Note: i know 0 about programming, codes, etc, but am fairly familiar with the c5 cms!

I happen to be looking to create something exactly like this for a local business directory / networking site! I'm thinking this would make for a nice addon package.

What you're trying to do will require custom development. I am thinking it would be nice to have a way to manage categories and manually approve submissions via the dashboard, too.

how long would an addon like this take you to create?

Just posted a how-to using ProBlog and ProForms to publish user submitted content to your site. Maybe this will get you thinking. You should be able to match any form question to any page_attribute.

Hope this helps.

i need all information on the page to be displayed through atttibutes since the parent page contains a paglist and map that uses the attributes of the subpages.
