Hi, I am trying to grant a role the oppertunity to choose whether to push a new node (eg. a blog they just created) to the front page. Without giving full access to nodes.
They only create content and need to able to choose comment and publish settings. The comment options are granted but the publish setting are not.

Am I overlooking something?

Ps. I'm not sure if I'm using the correct terms here, because I'm working with a Dutch installation...

Thanks!

Publish is tied to the powerful 'administer nodes' permission. You can delegate publish/unpublish with the http://drupal.org/project/publishcontent module. To grant 'promote to front' you can use a view to replace the default front page and the http://drupal.org/project/flag module to create a flag to mimic the 'promote to front' setting.

Thanks for your quick response!

The first module is indeed also nice to add for its functionality.
The second advice could be an option, but I have no experience with views yet. So for the time being I think I will create a seperate content type which will be promoted to the front page by default... I think this will be an easier and faster fix for me right now, while I still keep the customer happy. ;-)
