Hi Alan,
hm, should work.
First: You should not need workflows and triggers in your case. Maybe you should disable this for now. If you assigned some workflow to the "publish" triggers, set them to "no workflow".
Workflows only work and progress, when you set up cron jobs (or run "runcronsjobs.php" manually). If you did not yet do that, you publishing worflow probably stucks somewhere.

If this does not work, change the last permission to "content create *"

You shouldn't need to assign the role to an indivual user, if you assign it to his group.

PS! Remember that the user also needs edit rights!! The publishing in eZ Publish is done by redirecting. So when you create a new node (Pressing create), the node is created on the next web page and then automatically (instant) redirected to edit mode on that node.

Mmm. I thought the idea of workflows was that editors could login, only see what you wanted them to see, and only submit for publishing those content objects setup in the workflow for the editors group.

I am testing EZPublish to see if it can allow an editor to log in and submit but not publish. And as far as I can tell, it doesnt work. I am using sepearate browsers [IE6 and Mozilla 1.4] in order to test this. I will try deleting the workflow and triggers to see if this allows Fred [see above] to submit.

If I am on the wrong track here with user submissions then please someone steer me in the right direction. Thank you...

If as I am trying to do create a user called fred who can submit articles should he login at the user site or the admin site?

The admin site is in fact the user side and reverse in the sense that they are both a "siteaccess" with a different "design".

The admin site is just a predefined siteaccess which lets you do a small part of ez functionality in a nice interface, geared towards admins.

What I do is let users have access to certain admin functions ... but they remain in the user siteaccess.

Alan,

This is indeed not enough: you need to add an edit policy to the role:

content edit (Class Article), Section (Standard section)

A single edit policy is also not enough to create items, but this enables what it supposes to do: editing existing items.

Don't know to call this a feature or a bug :)
