Ability to save draft but not publish
I have a client who needs to create a role whereby a user can save a draft edit of an item, but not publish those changes.
I've seen this post, and it looks like this isn't possible at the minute: https://forum.grabaperch.com/forum/04-11-2017-allow-a-user-save-edits-to-a-region-but-not-publish
Can you point me in the right direction as to how I might be able achieve this, I'm thinking is there an event hook I can use where I can intercept a region being published, or a means whereby I can dynamically set the 'Save a draft' checkbox.
Thanks
I thought this was something we had, but looking through the code apparently it's not. There's not a distinction between who can draft a revision and who can publish it.
Likewise! Do you think it is do-able without hacking the core files?
Perch or Runway?
Runway
Ok, let me see what I can do.
Thanks
Ok, give Runway 3.0.14 a whirl.
Amazing. I'll have a butchers.
Looks great! Wonder if it might be worth adding a function to bulk assign at /perch/core/users/roles/actions/?id=1
I did think about that, but by default it takes the 'edit' permission (you need to edit in order to publish) so I'm not sure that's entirely necessary. I'll give it some time. (It would've also made this more than something I could quickly implement, which would mean it wouldn't be high enough priority to compete with everything else and therefore wouldn't've happened.)
Understood. Thanks!
