Allow user to Publish, but not Edit or Delete

2 Views

I saw post Allow Content Author to Publish, But Not Edit or Delete but is not the same I need and I cannot ask there because of reputation ¬¬

I need an user that can publish any user’s post but can’t edit or delete any post, not only their.

I tried with capabilites Read|Publish Post but can’t see the Posts. With Read|Edit Posts|Publish Post can see the Posts but only publish own Posts.

Is there a way of doing what I need ?

Thank you in advance

  1. I am not sure what you’re trying to do by not allowing Edit. Its only a job of Publishing the post it seems. (or maybe add some Meta description etc)

    But, if you’re looking at creating a Moderator, you need to create additional user group & assign permissions.

    You can try http://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-access-manager/ or similar plugins to modify granular permissions.

  2. I’m finishing up a project where we used Theme Hybrid’s Members Plugin. It gives you granular control over what each role can do (you can also easily create custom roles), and this plugin would allow you to permit a user to post, but not edit or delete a post.

    There are more “advanced” ways of doing this, but I say, “pick you battles” and make use of a great free plugin as long as it doesn’t create other problems for you.
