Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Hi. I'm using workflow, and found it's great tool. For purpose of a newspaper it's perfect.
However I need a very special use - to allow author to choose a person from a user group that can only review (change state) of the article. Just to have more clear cooperation - not to allow other users of the same type to change something accidentaly - so that could be confusing.
I'll just have one type of user and want them to exchange - one can be an author, other can be revisor, but need something like checkbox of users so that an author can choose a single person for clear cooperation.
_Summary question_
How to allow author to choose one selected user to change the article state from Review to Publised.
I guess it's not implemented right now, but if You give me some detailed tips "where and how" maybe I could do so.
(I'm newbie to drupal, however intensively learning, creating newspaper site (almost done), I'm amatour programmer too, but don't really like it much)

Bastlynn commentedSince this request is over 2 years old, I'm going to assume a solution was found or you've moved on. If not, please get updated to the latest versions of all modules and make a request for it against Drupal 7 and I'll be glad to take a look at it.
I'm pretty sure there's another module out there that does exactly this. Grant Permissions or something like that?

johnvYou could solve this to add an extra field 'reviewer' to the Node or to the Workflow form.
Then, after the state change, the Workflow Form should pop up only if the use is the designated 'reviewer'.
This is currently not possible, but I'll add this to #2262915: [META] Allow changing of Workflow Widget before displaying it.
#1559680: Make Transitions fieldable entities is a prerequisite.
