# Approval process for posts from other users on my site

 * Hello,
 * We have sport club and we want to allow that the coaches can (only) create posts
   with the result and a summary of the game.
 * I want to get them the role of an author/editor to create the posts (so limited
   actions for the user). I also want to check the posts before being published 
   by an admin or another role.
 * Is there a possibility to setup such a scenario ?
 * BR,
    Patrick
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fapproval-process-for-posts%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Sure, it’s possible. If you need something more advanced, there’s Oasis Workflow
   plugin:
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/oasis-workflow/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/oasis-workflow/)
 * A simpler process, you can remove author’s capability to publish_posts so they
   can’t publish them but instead need to submit it for review. So it’s saved as
   a draft until an admin reviews it and manually publishes it.

 * Thanks [@supporthero](https://wordpress.org/support/users/supporthero/)
 * [@delcorny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/delcorny/), you are essentially
   looking for a one-step workflow as shown on [https://www.oasisworkflow.com/documentation/basic-concepts/commonly-used-workflows](https://www.oasisworkflow.com/documentation/basic-concepts/commonly-used-workflows)
 * Essentially, your first step in the workflow should be the “publish” step. This
   step will act as “review and publish”. Then from this step, you create a failure/
   red connection to “assignment” step. So, if the publisher/reviewer doesn’t like
   something he/she can reject/unable to complete and it will go to assignment step.
 * See if this helps.
 * If you are looking for advanced/pro features (revision workflow, auto submit 
   etc), please do not hesitate to submit a query via our support page – [https://www.oasisworkflow.com/submit-a-query](https://www.oasisworkflow.com/submit-a-query)
