Hello.

I need a user with specific rights to approve (publish) the other user's pending posts.

But instead of doing it from wordpress backend and edit each post and publish it, I need to know if toolset can view all users' pending posts and the authorized user being able to click and push a button to approve (Publish) the posts.

A king of post-management interface where he will see the draft posts, pending and publish them.

Thank you so much.

Sure, I can help you set up something like this. As I understand it, you'll need at least these components:
- A View of these posts, filtered by post status="pending". The View should include the post title or post link, as well as an Edit Post Form.
- An Edit Post Form that edits these posts and sets the status to "published" upon submission. You can remove all the input fields from this Form and leave only the Form Messages field and the Submit button, so the Form only displays the "Submit" button.
- A conditional or Access Control that hides the View of pending posts from unauthorized Users, and restricts access to the Edit Post Form from unauthorized Users.

You'll nest the Form inside the View of pending posts, and insert the View in a page, post, or template where you want to display the list of pending posts.

If you need help setting this up, I can provide more guidance. It may be fastest if you provide login credentials so I can access your wp-admin area. I can see your work and give you more direct advice. Private reply fields are available here for your next reply, so you can share login credentials securely.
