Content Approval

Summary

Content Approval is a module that enable the approval of a content (node) by an administrator prior its publication (like the existing feature for comments).

Usage

Once the Content Approval feature is enabled for a content type it is possible to set/unset the 'skip content publication approval' permission for any existing role.

Approving content

Approving consist in publishing a content that need approval (its field 'field_content_approval_value' set to 1).

As the Drupal core content administration page doesn't allow adding a custom filter, this functionality is provided through Views Bulk Operations (VBO) module.

So, if you install VBO you will get a 'default views' to be activated which allow you to filter contents needing approval and publish them.

Configuration

1. Go to the Home » Administration » Structure » Content types page and edit the content type on which you want to enable the feature.
2. Finally tell to which role the feature must apply by adjusting the permissions at the Home » Administration » People page » Permissions page.
