In reply to: [Revisionize] Permissions/capability issueHi MTbikes
What are you using – just Core WP or a Pagebuilder like my client? We had the issue that to allow colleagues to edit content (without) URE this would then allow them (using Pagebuilder) if they could edit a published page then they could then publish without any approval – it’s pretty complicated to explain.
Using Revisionize we can really dumb down the rights of users (or in effect upskill contributor role) to only allow view or revisionize and when this becomes a new draft and then the usual workflow will apply (core WP).
Sorry if this isn’t clear but happy to try and help further.

In reply to: [Revisionize] Permissions/capability issueMorning
Just to add to the ticket (even though resolved) we use Jamie’s excellent plugin alongside URE (User Role Editor) to enable colleagues to make amends to published content including others content and then submit this for approval by the central communications team.
The client I am working for uses a page builder (Beaverbuilder) which creates some unique challenges as it uses core WP capabilities, so it doesn’t matter what you do with URE as when you hit paegbuiilder (as an end user) these are overwrittem. This is where Revisionize comes in. I have used URE to add capabilities to Contributor role so but they only have the option to “view” or “revisionize” published/live content. Once they revisionize this then creates a draft (whilst retaining the original live on the site). They then use pagebuilder to make amends and then they can submit for review.
This pushes the changed version into pending status which can be seen from the main page view by Comms. They can then go in and check the revision using the wordpress compare versions function and if required either just update from the backend and this pushed live or go to Pagebuilder to check the formatting etc.
They then have to go and clean-up the pages and put the revision draft (original) in the bin etc.
We have retained version 1.0.1 as whilst the change in 1.1 to retain original author is great, the restriction on editing content etc. made the set-up with URE we had not work. We have however isolated the snippet that deals with the retain author and added this into version 1.0.1.
Any queries please fire away and apologies for any typos my fingers are freezing and I subsequently can’t type.
