Approval request for non owners

Suppose this workflow

- Author
- Editor
- Publisher

We would like to have the option for editors to request approval for articles, even when they aren´t the owners.

I would say that could be implemented as a global parameter "Allow non owners to request approvals", and make an if on the isUserDraft function to change the query.

Unless otherwise indicated:
Joomla 3.8.1
Flexicontent 3.2.1.7

Hello

1. yes this could be a global parameter (but default value of parameter should be disabled)
so this is marked as accepted:
Enhancement Issue 603

2. if i remember correctly there are no performance implications

3. it is not too much work, but currently not a priority, is it important for your project ?

Based on the workflow we have it would be a desirable behaviour. I mean, we have a group of editors that work coordinately on the articles so any one of them could request approval.

Hello

thanks for proposal,

i think though that more places need to be updated and also surely add 1/2 new parameters for it

no time to look at it yet, will do though at appropriate time

Regards
