PublishPress Revisions: Submit, Moderate, and Schedule Changes to Posts

Description

PublishPress Revisions gives you control over updating published content. Users can submit revisions. You can approve or reject them.

Your users can update posts using the normal WordPress editor, but their changes will not be published automatically. Instead, the changes are stored as a revision that can be approved, rejected or scheduled. PublishPress Revisions works with the familiar WordPress interface, including Gutenberg and the Classic Editor.

The Free version of PublishPress Revisions supports the WordPress core. The Pro version of PublishPress Revisions supports ACF, Yoast SEO, PODS, WooCommerce, WPML, Elementor, Beaver Builder, and many more plugins and themes.

Revisions Pro
This plugin is the free version of the Revisions Pro plugin that comes with all the features you need to manage changes for your WordPress content. With Revisions Pro you can manage changes to plugin content and page-builders. Click here to purchase the best premium WordPress content update plugin now!

Submit Change Requests for Posts

PublishPress Revisions allows your users to submit change requests for published posts. Your users can update posts using the normal WordPress editor, but their changes will not be published automatically. Instead, the changes are stored as a “pending revision” that can be approved or rejected.

Schedule Future Updates to Posts

PublishPress Revisions allows you to schedule WordPress revisions to be published in the future. When you’re editing a published post, all you need to do is select a future date and click “Schedule Revision”. Your changes will be published at the specified time.

Click here to see how to schedule revisions.

Manage and Moderate Changes to Content

After you create a revision with PublishPress Revisions, you can find that revision on the Revision Queue screen. This screen shows you all the revisions that have been submitted for approval. Underneath each revision you can choose from several moderation tools: Edit, Delete, Preview and Compare.

Click here to see how to manage and moderate revisions.

Compare Current and Former Versions

Pending and Scheduled Revisions can include changes to post content, categories, tags, featured image, page parent and other options. Each of these changes can be reviewed in the familiar Compare Revisions interface.

Click here to see how to compare revisions.

Frontend Moderation of Changes

It is possible to preview and moderate revisions via the frontend of your WordPress site. If you click Preview for a pending revision, you’ll see a toolbar across the frontend of the site. This toolbar will change color so you can easily know the status of the revision. For example, if you’re looking at a pending revision, the toolbar will be green. For scheduled revisions, the toolbar will be grey.

Email Notifications for Revisions

PublishPress Revisions will notify Administrators and Editors when a new revision is submitted. They can log in to preview, compare and approve the changes. PublishPress Revisions can also send emails for revision approval and publication. The Settings screen lets you disable unwanted notifications.

Revision Permissions

PublishPress Revisions works with the default WordPress user roles, and also introduces a Revisor role:

  • Contributors can submit revisions to their own published posts.
  • Revisors can submit revisions to posts and pages published by others.
  • Authors, Editors and Administrators can approve revisions or schedule their own revisions.

To schedule changes to a published post, just set the desired future date before hitting Update.

By upgrading to Revisions Pro, you also gain advanced permissions control through the PublishPress Permissions Pro plugin. You can customize permissions by role or per-user, granting full editing or revision submission rights to specific posts, categories, or taxonomy terms.

I installed the free version of the plugin found it to be great -- easy to use and exactly as advertised. I contacted PublishPress for a pre-sale question for the pro version and they had an answer for me within an hour. Very impressed!
May 21, 2021
Convenient! Thank you to the creator. Only one CSS written in <head> of the fixed page is not reflected in Revision Queue. ↓ solved. It was a part that depended on the theme and plugins. Then it can't be helped. Others are great. Thank you very much.
January 16, 2021
Good support! Only need the revision previews myself. Can see many of the options as addons. Might be nice to have a screen with a table of all revisions with search, filters and sorting
July 30, 2020
Had an issue that wasn't working out, but support was very responsive and great communication. I would recommend your products to anyone that has a need for them. Thank you for your great support.

Actually, it's sort of unfair to compare this plugin with the abandoned TAO one. This one has much more power, even in its free version. Even a low-to-no-budget developer wants to expire or update content on a timed basis. As a musician, I offer a schedule of what I play each week. When the date passes, I can push that info down into an archive section, with next week's information prominently displayed at the top. What's fun and convenient for me is absolutely imperative if you are expiring retail deals after a certain date/time passes. Another very interesting use of the plugin that I only recently discovered is the ability to progressively update a page without committing the update to production. In other words, if I want to do heavy updates, I can do them in a sandbox, save them without publishing into the revision queue, and then later revise the page in the revision queue. When done, I simply push the revision queue page to production immediately, or I can set it to deploy on a timer.
