With Staging and Approval, you are required to setup a category for Staging, and one for Approval.
My site has other categories, lets call them A and B. I have things setup fairly tight so only people in group A can view/edit Category A content. I also want to restrict the approval process to only a few people in group C.
If someone in group A modifies a page in Category A, it gets assigned to the staging category.
<Enter the bug>
Once I Approve that change, the page now belongs to Category A AND the approval category. Since not all users have view/edit rights to the approval category, they are now unable to edit that page any further.
Ideally, I'd like to see it so an approval category isn't necessary, I just define a group (or groups) who can approve pages.
If the approval category is necessary, then it needs to be removed from the page once approved.
Does this problem still exist in Tiki 6? I did some testing in Tiki 6 (i.e. even though some users that have not edit rights to the approval category, they are able to to see the edit icons so long as there was a corresponding staging page in the staging category that they can edit. When they click on those icons, they get sent to edit the staging page.
They need at least view perms of course.
