Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: user system Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: gordon Reported by: gordon Updated by: mcd Status: patch I'd put the tab under Recent Posts, which already has a similar tab for My Recent Posts. mcd Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 6, 2004 - 20:12 : gordon Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user_9.patch (1.84 KB) This is a patch that I have wanted for a while, and esp. with the added menu tabs it has come together very well. What this patch does is add an additional tab to the "my account" page called unpublished. This tab displays exactly like the front page, but only displays unpublished content that belongs to the user. This allows the user to work on content over multiple editing sessions and then be able to come back and easily find the content. that they were working on, and resume editing. I find this useful if your are content is over multiple pages and you want to add the links. One thing that i would like to add is being able to not only seeing your unpublished content but the content of other users that give you permission to review/collaborate on before it is published. Maybe it would be handy to be able to have multiple authors on a single node. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 6, 2004 - 20:23 : killes@www.drop.org I think that this could well be implemented as a "personal workflow" module. There are endless possibilities with the new access controll lists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 6, 2004 - 20:49 : gordon Yes the possiblities are endless. I would like to see something more, but at this stage I think this would really help alot of people, I know that it has helped for me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 13, 2004 - 05:55 : moshe weitzman seems useful. consider making it a contrib module so folks can easily check it out, and we don't wait for core in order to use it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 14, 2004 - 08:11 : gordon I do feel that this should be something that is in core. In its present form, creating a module for it would be feely easy, but there is not very much functionality in it, so it would be a very small module. But turning it into a module maybe a good idea, if the idea is going to be expanded further, I would maybe like to see colaboration on a document between multiple users before it gets published. maybe something like an invitation system, that then users the node permisions to allow other users to access and edit your document before it is published. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 15, 2004 - 11:22 : elias1884 as far as I am concerned, this strongly belongs to core. for me this improvement goes hand in hand with http://drupal.org/node/7939 as it gives the unexperienced user a way to verify if their node really got submitted, since they might get confused by the "access denied" message they retrieve when published is turnd of in default workflow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 15, 2004 - 11:33 : moshe weitzman It seems like this functionality is part of the workspace.module in Contrib. The UI may be different, but the idea persists. Perhaps folks could keep on improving workspace .... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 17, 2004 - 22:23 : tostinni A little correction of the patch due to new node_acces function : Replace : by And now unpublished tab will really appear ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 17, 2004 - 22:40 : gordon Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user_11.patch (1.84 KB) Here is a fixed version of the patch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 17, 2004 - 22:57 : jvandyk This seems to duplicate the functionality of the workspace module. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 18, 2004 - 03:32 : Dries The tabs on the user page represents actions one can perform on a user: one can 'view', 'edit', 'track' or 'contact' a user. Adding a tab called 'unpublished' is a bad idea. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ November 18, 2004 - 06:38 : gordon Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user_12.patch (1.78 KB) Yes looking at this, I agree with you. The way that this menu has developed it is no longer appropiate to add this tab here. My next option was to put it under the either the view or edit tabs. I am leaning more towards the view than the edit. I think that it is a view function because you are not actually editing anything. Also this is an operation that a user can only use on thier user, so it is a private function. What do you think? I also did a bit more investigation of the patch, and had to make some more changes as the call to the node_access() has changed, and the information that I need is no longer accessible that way. -- View: http://drupal.org/node/10611 Edit: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/10611
