On my site, in content I have several categories where specific authors routinely make submissions. I would like to be able to incorporate a secondary page for the authors, which contains their bio info and possibly a head shot.

The closest thing I can come up with is the block that is created by Nuke for related items when you view a news article.

Does anyone know how to do this for content?

How would I create the bio pages seperate from the users profile?

Can't you just create BIO pages for them as additional Content pages?
Make another Content Category called USER BIOS?

Heck I dunno. :?

I was thinking of that, I would sort of like to keep the pages hidden, until they are activated by the link.

Maybe I'll look at submit news module, and the news block to see if I can find the code that creates it, and modify the content module. I would also like to add a link to make it a printer friendly page.

I think you can have Content pages that are not activated and still get to them as long as you know the link. They just won't show up on the Main Content page. But you can then still link to them from another Activated content page. They should still come up..not positive though...but I think they will.

why not just create the template for their bio in .html form and then incorporate it using one of the many convertors into nuke format? 8)

Ok, thanks Mikem.

Renegade... did you just speak to me in Greek? 8O

One of the many converters? Are you talking about just creating a new block to be viewed on content pages? If I can I'd like to do it that way, maybe have the links to the other submissions by those authors along with their bio's. I think the block itself would be relatively easy to create, except that I might have to create a new table for thte authors, so it doesn't point to their regular profile. I don't know how to make it show up on only the content pages.
