Create drafts of WordPress posts/pages/CPTs even after theyÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ve been published. And when youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re ready, merge the changes back into the original published post.

Features

• Perform a post diff similar to WPÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s default revision.php?action=diff with added ability to compare changes in post meta and taxonomies
• See a notice when the original post has been updated ahead of a draft
• Preview drafts in the post/page/CPTÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s natural template
• Since drafts all carry the same custom post status, they are organized in the adminÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s edit.php with their own status filter (see screenshot-4)

This plugin requires javascript.

How Does it Work?

Go to a postÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s edit screen and click on the “Save a Draft” button in the Drafts of Revisions postbox (make sure youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ve enabled the post type first). The postÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s core data, taxonomies, and meta data are all copied into a new post Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – the draft Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – as a child of the original post. The draft has a custom post status; it will never show up in any queries for posts. You can create as many drafts as you like.

You can edit a draftÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s post content, taxonomies, and meta data as you like and save progress with the native WP “Save Draft” button. You can also preview the draft and compare changes against the parent at any time (even comparing changes in taxonomies and meta data).

When youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re ready to update the parent post, click the Publish button from the draftÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s edit page. All post data, taxonomies, and meta data are merged back into the parent post and the draft post is deleted.
