Restricting User to Publish...

Hello All,

In my site, I have two users one Editor and one Admin.
Editor can only Create a page or modify the existing page but he should not be able to publish that changes or edits. And only admin can approve and publish that changes after checking it from his drafts.
so can any one help me in setting or restincting editor from publishing.

Thanks,
Sandeep Kadam

There is a default approval workflow (http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_x/reference/workflow_events/approve) and some custom ones (on projects.ez.no) for this.

But I would suggest to use content object states, it is simpler to manage and easily implement. Though, can't find any documentation for it currently...

Hi,

I need to select people to valid publish workflow instead of groups. But we cannot do that with ezPublish default settings.

Could you tell me if we could change this settings please ?

Sorry for my bad english... Thanks

Best regards,

Fx

Hi FX,

You want to have one person validating publication instead of a group, this in the context of an approval workflow. Just making sure we understand properly.

Let us know,
Cheers
