    Is there a way to turn off OTHER’S DRAFTS?

    Not delete them, but to make them not visible…

    Thanks,
    Mat

    Do you mean control who can post what on a multi-user blog? That is controlled by the adminstrator (highest access level) and set in the Admin Panel under USERS > Authors and Users. Set the draft poster’s access level in such a way that their stuff won’t show up until approved. You can find more information about user level access:

    No, I meant when you click on MANAGE from the Admin Panel…

    There is a huge list of all the drafts of my other users. I don’t want to see them. I only want the author of those drafts to see them.

    Does that make sense?

    Makes sense to me. He means only be able to see your own drafts when logged in and not all of them. Doesn’t seem like a hard fix.

    Oh, now it makes sense. Did you go through the User Levels list on the Codex (linked above)? Try changing your user level to see when the drafts go away, if they do. If they don’t, well, I’ve posted a note to one of the “workers” to see what they can come up with.

    Are you the admin on this site?

    I did try that on a whim. It didn’t change anything.

    And yes, I am the admin on the site…

    Thanks so much!

    (sorry I wasnt clear in my first post… sometimes it’s hard to explain on message boards)

    Was there ever a solution for this? I’d like to remove “other’s drafts” visibility as well.

    I’d like to remove this or at least move it to the bottom of the page myself. It looks like /wp-admin/edit.php is the file that would need to change and I think one could just comment out the first part of that file until they go away (and nothing else seems broken). Warning: doing this may break your site. I barely know what I’m doing.

    Thanks for the idea brianwc, I am going to try that. I think I’m going to try removing the “Excerpt” field while I’m there b/c we don’t use that.
