Having editors only allow save changes as drafts

aled_hefin · Jul 1st 2019

Hi,

Is there a way where I can create a role, where a user would only be allowed to update certain pages, and that once they update page content, an e-mail is sent to another user with a role of "content adminstrator" or similar? The "content adminsitrator" would then be able to "approve" the change before it goes live.

Thanks

Perch doesn't have any workflow options (e.g. email user2 when user1 adds content) but you can set the privileges on a role so that the user can only create drafts and not publish them.

Hi Drew, Thanks for such a speedy reply!

One last question, when creating a role, what does "View update notices" mean? Are these updates to content, or updates to Perch?

Notices about updates to Perch. Some people find this useful, and for others it causes friction. So it's an option.
