If I understand well, I'll have to create my <i>own</i> workflow, right ?
And btw, how can I create a workflow that will be available for the Publish/After event ? I created a Event/Approve workflow, but it's only available for Publish/Before event, and I can't find any info about this point.
Thanks for your time !

Depending on the level of customizability that you need, you might not need a workflow.
Individual users would subscribe to receive e-mail notifications whenever there have been modifications to a subtree.
If you want to externally manage an e-mail list, you could also use the "tipafriend" feature to manually notify a list whenever there's an article that they should check out:
The documentation on that isn't so good, but basically you would access content/tipafriend/<node_id> to access a form where you could e-mail someone (or a mailing list of course) about that node.
Indeed, the notification feature could be more suitable for my need.
In detail, the features I need on my site are :
- A user subscribe to have a notification for each article published on the site. For that, I think the notification feature would be nice.
I just hope that I could tell eZ that the user will subscribe to more than just one subtree. I mean for example, the subtree "News" and the subtree "Products" at the same time. Is that possible ? Or do you think I will need to create my own workflow ?
- A user subscribe to receive notification once a month. I think that I will run a cronjob once a month, that will check articles to send in different subtrees, get the subscribers list, and send it. Do you agree with my point of view ?
Many thanks for your time :)
