Multidoc

A system for assembling, managing, and creating navigation elements for multi-page articles. You can have Textpattern treat a Multidoc collection as a single unit (optional), while you get the benefit of dividing long articles into parts.

Features

• automatically-generated navigation links, pagers, and tables of contents
• easy collection management, with unlimited levels of structure (chapters, sub-sections, what have you)
• filter sub-pages out of your front page article lists (if you want to), while keeping them available for search results
• MLP-ready (I think; untested)

Requirements

• PHP 5
• an open custom field
• the soo_txp_obj library, included in the release
• willingness to help me test this!
