Hi Everyone,
You guys helped me out of the last mess and I'm coming back for more help.
I have posted on this forum before concerning the same topic, but I was dealing with a different aspect of this topic, in that, after not beiing able to give this author the ability to publish, I then deleted the author, created a new author with the same name, followed by having to use the Batch editor to re-connect each story to the newly created profile. Thank you for that solution.
Since the author did not complain about the original issue, which was that they were not able to publish their own post, then I thought this issue was resolved, until I found out that the author was still asking another admin to publish their post for them.
I was floored! To think of all that work, deleting the author, re-creating the author and transferring ownership of all those posts, for naught!
There are three admins on our web site and none of us can create a new profile that will remain in a state of Published while being logged in as the "new" profile. However, we can log in as ourselves and publish with no problem.
We are running Version 3.33. Each "new" profile that we have created have ALL permissions. We have also tried with limited permissions.
What are we doing wrong? We have added several authors over the past few months, but this author is unable to publish and any author that we try to create has the same issue. Is there a limit on how many authors an MT site can have? I may be mistaken, but I do believe that they were the last author that we have added, barring these test profiles.
Thanks in advance,
Kronus
Full Version: Entry Always Reverts To Unpublished
Hi Kronus,
I was having exactly the same problem. The culprit turned out to be Workflow, one of the plugins we are using. I had granted this author the appropriate permissions when creating the new author account. When logged in as admin, I needed also to click 'Edit Publish Permissions' under 'Plugin Actions' for the weblog in question and grant permissions there too.
Good luck!

Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooo much
It worked perfectly -- 'Edit Publish Permissions' under 'Plugin Actions' for the weblog in question and grant permissions.
You are beautiful and if I was rich, then I'd buy you a new car.
My God! I had tried everything, including changing permisions of items and folders on the server itself.
Thank you, thank you, thank you
