Blog articles

[CHJ]

Hello everyone, 

I have two questions:

1. There ist a blog post in the backend that has not yet been published: 

Unfortunately, I didn't receive a notification that the post was pending publication and I can't find an option to do so in the backend. However, the article is not displayed to me in the front end. What options do I have to publish the post? 

2. A user wants to create a blog article via the front end. We have adjusted the authorization accordingly. Unfortunately, there is no option to do the formatting in the front end.
Is this option only available in the backend or can the option also be set for frontend?

Greetings

On the first one, you would approve on the front end. You will be able to see those as a member of moderation on the front end, and will also see them in the approval queue in the moderator CP

On the second item, Im not sure what you mean here by you cant format. Please could you clarify specifically what it is you cant set?

On the first: which user settings are necessary? I'm currently getting the message that I don't have the authorization. But I'm moderator.

On the second: if I want to post an article via the frontend it looks like this: 

I don't have the option to mark fonts in bold, underline the, make lists etc. like in the backend

Check that database in Members->Staff->Moderators for your own entry, and ensure you have the ability to do this in here.

In terms of the editor there, please check that on a default unaltered theme. If that is a WYSIWYG field, then you should be seeing the editor buttons.

1. Ok, I have adjusted the authorization. Thank you! But the post is not displayed:

I also tried to create the article again but it doesn't show up as "not activated".

Found a way! Thank you!

Glad to hear you have the issue resolved
