Hi !
I went throughout the process of using the "edit state" to allowed.
Here's what I managed to do but I'm still stuck on something. Thoughtful tips are most welcome!
1. Created a user group "TLLCER" composed of 13 users (students) belonging to the Authors group, with "edit state" and "edit own" set to allowed.2. Created a category called "students posts". When the users belonging to the TLLCER group use the frontend editor, they have no choice but to publish in this category.
3. Created a menu link called "my articles" pointing to the category list "students posts". When a user clicks on this link in the menu, they are redirected to publishing information. Here's a test with 2 users:
* user 1 (TLLCER1) submitted an article called "test student 1".
* user 2 (TLLCER2) submitted an article called "test student 2".
Good news is that, for example, student 1 can view and edit his own article.
Bad news is he can view (but not edit) student 2's article. Actually, he can click on the title, view the article, and in some cases, I would love them not to view what their friends have submitted until my moderation operates.
Is there a simple workaround that would make other students'articles invisible to the whole group (except to the student who submitted the article of course!) until they are finally reviewed and published by me (admin)?
Seems like I'm close to the finishing line. Hope you might suggest something handy!
(and thanks a lot for your patience)
