[TriLUG] Joomla news posting permissions for all users

[David A. Cafaro]

Well, for my Joomla site (1.0.x) all that was need was to add the  
person to either the Author or Publisher groups in the user control  
panel (https://yourjooml.atyoursite.net/administrator/).

If they are an Author they can create articles but can't tag them as  
published.

If they are an Editor they can create articles, edit other articles,  
but can't publish.

If they are a Publisher they can do all the above and publish them.
