    Hello,

    I want to set a user to be able to see previous Revisions of a published post, but they can’t publish the post (as I’m afraid they wrongly edit and get accidental change published), is it possible?

    I checked and seems like I must enable “edit_publish_post”, in order to see the Revisions of that published post. Would there any alternative to do this?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    I do not see any easy alternative except of writing some special code:
    1 variant – hide ‘Publish’ button at client side via JavaScript code which was injected to the post editor page for this user;
    2 variant – special plugin for read-only access to the post revisions.

    Hello,

    Thanks for the help. For “2 variant”, do you know any special plugin that can provide such read-only access?

    Thanks.

    Unfortunately, I don’t know such plugin.
