    Hi

    I am finding with the listing approval process I can make new listings created go to a pending state for Admin to review and approve in order to be published. However, once they have been approved I am finding the listing creator can then go in and edit the listing with the changes being published straight away without Admin review and approval process.

    For quality control not only do I require new listings to be reviewed and approved by Admin prior to being published but I also required all edited listings to go through this process as well prior to the changes being published. Does GD plugin do this out of the box or am I required to have this feature customised? (if so, I just don’t see the logic behind only being able to review and approve new listing prior to publishing and not edited listings).

    Cheers
    Kerrin

    Hi Kerrin, that is not possible without customization. The reason is that an edit would need to send the listing into draft after it was already published, and you will get missing pages and dead links while the listing is gone into draft.

    We therefore added an option to be alerted of any edits: GD > Notifications > Admins Emails tab > Notify Admin when listing edited by Author > YES

    Thanks

    Thanks Guust. I will look at the alert option after editing fore I go down the customisation route.
