<p>Your older posts can quickly become out-of-date and require editing to provide up-to-date information.<br />
For instance, posts at medical sites might require regular reviews to make sure they’re keeping up with the latest research.<br />
Spritz keeps track of when each post needs to be reviewed.<br />
When the time arrives, the post is marked as needing review and an optional email is sent to the admin user.<br />
You can adjust the timing on a per-post basis if you want: some posts might require monthly reviews, others might only need them yearly.<br />
A listing page shows the current state of each post.<br />
You can even subject the review to a further approval step if you want.</p>

<h3>Configuration</h3>
<p>A post can be in one of the following states: NEUTRAL, AWAITING_REVIEW, REVIEWED, NEEDS_WORK, APPROVED, or DISAPPROVED.<br />
Each post has a “Next action date”.<br />
If the post is in REVIEWED or APPROVED state, it’s moved into AWAITING_REVIEW state on the “Next action date”.<br />
Then, it’s expected that an admin will put the post into the REVIEWED or APPROVED state. After an admin does that, the timer starts over again.<br />
Of course, an admin could also put the post into the NEEDS_WORK or DISAPPROVED state,<br />
but what happens in that case is beyond the scope of this plugin.</p>
<h3>Details</h3>
<p>Screenshot 1 shows the sidebar where you set the state of your posts.<br />
At the top it shows the current state, the next action date, and the note on the current state.<br />
Below that, you can set the new state and provide notes.<br />
To add the new state, you have to check the confirm checkbox and save the post.<br />
At the bottom you can override the settings just for this post, see below.</p>
<p>Screenshot 2 shows the settings screen.<br />
If you check ‘Automatically approve posts’, any time a post is put into the REVIEWED state,<br />
it will automatically be moved into the APPROVED state. If you don’t check that, an admin<br />
will need to move it into the APPROVED state manually.<br />
‘Number of days’ controls the timer.<br />
The other settings are for the email that’s sent out when a post is moved into the AWAITING_REVIEW state.<br />
If you don’t fill out all three email fields, no email will be sent out.</p>
<p>Referring back to Screenshot 1, you can override settings on a per-post basis.<br />
For instance, you might want some posts to be reviewed more frequently than others.<br />
You can also change the auto-approval settings.<br />
As with setting the new state, you have to check the confirm checkbox to have the overrides saved.</p>
<h3>Shortcodes</h3>
<p>Three shortcodes are provided: [spritz_post_status], [spritz_post_note], and [spritz_post_nextreviewdate].<br />
If used on a post, those show the current status of the post, the last note, and the next review date.<br />
If used on something other than a post, nothing is shown.</p>
<h3>Multiple Roles</h3>
<p>If you have multiple roles that will review posts, you’ll need to install one of the many<br />
member plugins that are available.<br />
Screenshot 4 is from one of those plugins.<br />
Only roles with the ‘spritz_edit_settings’ permission can change the global settings.<br />
Only roles with the ‘spritz_override_post_settings’ permission can override those global settings on a per-post basis.<br />
The other permissions are of the form ‘spritz_transition_from_X_to_Y’.<br />
You may decide that users of a certain role can move a post from REVIEWED to NEEDS_WORK but not vice versa, and so on.</p>

Spritz

Spritz reminds you to review or refresh your WordPress posts on a regular basis.

Thomas McGee

<p>It’s no secret that guest blogging is a powerful way to add useful content and interaction to your site. Adding to this the fact that WordPress makes it easy to track and manage the editorial and review process, it’s little wonder why so many sites, large and small use the platform to power numerous writers.</p>
<p>One of the difficulties, however, is making a writer clear of your site’s writing guidelines. You could send around a PDF or even create a page on your site, but that can get a bit messy.</p>
<p>Features include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Change the color of the panel’s header to help match your site’s theme or to simply grab your writers’ attention.</li>
<li>Specify the post types on which you want the editorial guidelines to appear.</li>
<li>Specify the specific user roles for which you want the editorial guidelines appear.</li>
</ul>


Simple Editorial Guidelines

This plugin enables you to display a simple panel containing your editorial guidelines in the post edit admin to users of your choosing.
