Hi,

In our school’s website we have groups. Teachers (Authors) and Head of Departments (Publishers). How can I let the publishers to see and approve the submitted articles by authors from the front end? Is it possible? I could not see any menu related to this request.

Regards

Hi Nhat,

Actually there is no problem. I was just asking how can I do that?

Hello icbl,

Currently, as Joomla Access Control List, a publisher can approve new article posted by author. Please see this workflow of ACL in Joomla.

Best regards.

Hi Nhat,

Thanks for the link, it helps but it doesn’t say where the publishers can see the articles waiting approval? As a publisher, how can I see the articles submitted by an Author? Should I create a menu to click so it can open the waiting list of articles or something else? I want to see the articles from front end so as a publisher I can approve them!

Hi icbl,

if you check the setting of the menu item that called “Submit an Article” (the menu item that point to the article submit form) you would see a field name Choose a category, here you can choose the category for those articles that would be submitted at the front-end, if you have a menu item which’s pointing to that category and you are a publisher then after login at the front-end you just click on that menu item it would show you a list of articles (including both approved and unapproved articles) you now can choose to edit and publish articles as you wished.

I hope you got the ideal !
