# Amazing plugin, BUT…

 * I’ve been searching for a good frontend publishing plugin for ages. Yours is 
   the best. Pure and simple. The form layout is beautiful, the settings are great.
   I simply love it. I think you’ve done brilliant work.
 * Yet, I can’t use it.
 * There is one feature missing and this makes the plugin completely unuseable for
   me. I can’t have posts go through to a pending or draft state. This means that
   anyone could jump on my site and plaster it with spam or offensive material.
 * Please, please fix this! Nothing out there comes close to the quality of what
   you’ve made, but it is missing one crucial feature: a feature that almost every
   other frontend publishing plug in DOES possess.
 * If you fix this I will give you a five star review and tell the world how awesome
   your work is.

 * Thanks for your nice feedback.
 * Please tell me how you see this implemented the best way, and I will see what
   I can do.
 * I have planned to implement hadling of states, but I believe the standard way
   of handling this should be improved in WP 3.6, so I postponed it a bit.ú
 * One way to do it, is to implement it per role, as “can publish”. If this is set
   tu true for a role, it will work as now, if set to false the user will only only
   be able to submit post as draft. If user wants to edit a draft post, it can be
   updated but stays draft.
 * Just so I understand it, what userroles do you allow to post from frontend ?
 * When I have your feedback, I will look at it – I am travelling this week without
   access to my test system, so it will have to wait until next week for me to finish
   it

 * With a delay 🙂
 * Post status transitions are now supported in version 1.3
 * Let me know what you think
