I'm setting up some user accounts for my clients, and to help them with simplicity, I'm defining their own user access control settings to only edit and create nodes. However I've ran into the problem with publishing nodes to the front page and allowing them to edit the nodes that are already published to the front page. What user access control setting do I need to enable to allow users to promote nodes to the front page & edit them?

thanks,
Wes

Still stump on how to enable users to promote pages to the front page & edit them.

Gave users the ability to edit and create the nodes. But no front page option.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem. Thanks.

The "administer nodes" permission is what allows a user to override the default "promote to frontpage" value for any given content type. This opens up a lot more functionality to the user though that may not be desired.

On alternative route would be to user the Flag module. Simply create a global flag (i.e. promote) for a given content type. Then use the trigger/action functionality of drupal to promote / demote content to the frontpage based on that flag. For each flag you can determine what roles have access to it.

Hi All,

I used this module sometime back ...gives a whole lot of fine grain control such as promote to front option for roles.
