The disclosed embodiments provide a system for personalizing content authoring. During operation, the system obtains interaction data containing interactions between a set of users and a set of features of a content management system (CMS). Next, the system tracks preferences of the users toward the features in a set of attributes representing the interaction data and a context associated with the interactions. During access to the CMS by a user, the system uses the attributes to identify other users that are similar to the user. Next, the system uses attributes for the user and the other users to calculate a set of weighted ratings between the user and the features. The system then generates output for prioritizing, for the user, the features within a user interface of the CMS according to the set of weighted ratings.

Personalized content authoring driven by recommendations

Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure discussed herein may be used to facilitate the authorization of services between service providers and other users (e.g. customers of the service provider) with accounts on a social network. Unlike conventional authorization systems, embodiments of the present disclosure allow authorizations to occur dynamically at any time, regardless of the physical locations of the service provider and the customer. Embodiments of the present disclosure can also provide service providers and customers information on authorization requests on demand.
