Team roles and review

JotKite has four roles, so staff can write without anything going live unchecked.

An Author publishes their own posts with no review, and can't see or change anyone else's. Good for a trusted writer who doesn't need an editor.

How review works

  1. A Contributor writes a draft and clicks Submit for review.
  2. The number of posts waiting for review shows in the sidebar.
  3. An Editor or Admin does one of these:
    • approves and publishes it,
    • schedules it,
    • sends it back with a note explaining what to change.

Every submit, approval, change request and unpublish is logged with who, when and why, so "who published this?" always has an answer.

Comments: Editors and Admins approve visitors' comments on every post, and Authors on their own posts. See Comments, likes and sharing.

Add people under Users (Admins only).
