Is there a custom property that allows you to redirect one article asset to another?
I thought I'd seen it in one of the "Pro Tips" webinars, but I can't make it work and I can no longer find those webinars on the site.
Thanks!

Create a new contest application that allows customers to create new contests such as: Best of the Region, Cute Baby Contest, Best City, etc. It could tie into the Business Directory as a great addition to that product.

Subscription Transactions
Why do subscription transactions not get listed with other subscriptions (marketplace/subscriptions program)
I had to finally tell our accounting department (and give them access) to use the analytics program to verify revenue for subscriptions. I have a funny feeling the same will be true when we fully turn Ad-Owl on as well.

Persons Asset
One of the projects that I have on my list is a reference guide for medical professionals and health care facilities. The health care facilities are easily done by using your business directory.
After using the election stats program I was thinking that a similar asset for people would be handy to display contact information and other relevant information about the person. (I do not want our business directory filled with non-businesses)

Is there a way to search for assets with a start date of "today," such that you can save a search called "Today's stories" or something similar without having to change the date each day? If it's there, I'm just not seeing it. Thanks!

Author for YouTube Asset
Is there anyway you can add a way to add an author option to the youtube asset? Right now I've noticed our people have been using the batch edit screen to add this information to the asset. (Used for finding a video by a specific videographer)

It would be nice to add a clear button for the new section system. I am often hearing complaints from our copy desk and editors about incorrect sections being included because they are so used to the old method. Right now they are having to find the active check boxes and uncheck them when they change sections on upload.
Answer
Support for clearing sections has now been added and is deployed.
