Hi Tom,

I just read two of your questions and they are all quite valid. Drupal has grown exponentially in the past 3 years or so and documentation has not caught up with all the possible questions web developers, expert users or end-users may have about the product.

Drupal does have the ability to QUEUE content. If you look in the MODULES page [ http://drupal.org/project/Modules/name ] and search the word "workflow", you will find several modules that may suit your need.

The way I have done is by setting up a content class or NODE TYPE (like for example, STORY) and configuring it to go UNPUBLISHED and to QUEUE before it goes to publication. Then I give permissions to 'EDITORS' who can approve the stories, publish them and promote them to the front page.

So the answer is yes, Drupal does have the ability to create a workflow.

Hope this helps, liza

This is my last question, and then I swear I am done .... for now.

I have reviewed numerous CMS systems, like Vignette, Interwoven, Alfresco, Joomla, Mambo, etc. Many of these system provide a way for editors/content managers to view content within the context of the site before it is published. Then once the content is published, then it can be viewed by everyone else.

I didn't see where Drupal has that kind of feature .... but I could be completely wrong.

Thanks again for the help! Tom
