New user's question : identified users and publishing restriction
Mon, 02/03/2009 - 00:35
Hello,
Excuse me for my bad english. I'm using Prosepoint for a few weeks, and it's a wonderful tool. However, I'm looking for the simpliest way to restrict stories publishing ability only to a specific role.
Can someone help a poor newbie ;) ???
Thank you

Hi,

Hi,
Actually i only checked "create story content" doe identified users. But if i create a new account and try to create a new story, i can choose every status, even "Published" in the story's editor.
May I need an external module to do what I want (Allow identified users to create stories, but not to publish them : an editor has to publish them).

I misunderstood your original
I misunderstood your original question. I thought you wanted to restrict who could create stories, but it seems like you want to restrict who can set the status of stories to 'Published'.
Hmm... I don't think this is doable through the front end. You'll probably need some code added into the backend through a custom module of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't think there are any generic modules that will do this.
Hi,
Restricting publishing of stories is controlled by permissions at .../admin/user/permissions. Visit that page on your site, and look for the table rows with
The permissions you probably want to restrict are the first three listed above. The last two should be allowed for privileged users.
