 * Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to lock certain posts from other editors
   editing the posts. It seems that I already locked all the ‘pages’ but strangely,
   I don’t remember how I did it. So I would like to know how I did that too 🙁 
   I know that there is a plugin but it is not free, I would like a free way to 
   do this.
 * Does anyone know how to lock certain posts and also pages?

 * Have a look at some of the role management/scoper/restriction plugins. There 
   are quite a few that are free – such as [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/role-scoper/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/role-scoper/)

 * At some point in time following the initial post I want to be able to edit it
   in such a way that the edited portion will be hidden from unauthorized readers.
   Will role-scoper work for this or is there a more suitable alternative?
