user roles: can an editor see/edit my drafts?
-
I understand that an editor role can edit posts and pages, but am not clear on what their dashboard would look like. Can they edit posts or pages that I have saved as a draft? My main concern is how much of my unposted material/information do they have access to? I am unconcerned with whether they can edit items already posted. That’s fine.
Please inform!

t3ck, the article that you linked to barely begins to address the issue.
What are the differences between Administrator and User, other than the ability to delete the whole blog? Is there anything else that an Administrator can do that a User can’t do?
Can an Editor see/edit/delete ALL drafts or only personal ones?
Does an Editor have access to private (ie password-protected) posts/pages that have been created by the Administrator or other Users?

There is no “user” role. “Users” CANNOT access the admin areas. Only Administrators, Authors, Editors or Contributors can access the admin areas.
An administrator can do everything.
An editor can publish, edit, and delete any posts/pages, moderate comments, manage categories, manage tags, manage links and upload files.
That includes all drafts and published posts – public or private – in the blog.

maybe a wordpress.com blog works this way, but I’m currently encountering an issue where an editor can edit ANY posts except for ones created by the admin.

WordPress comes in two very different flavors. This forum is for wp.COM and we have different software.

It could be that an editor cannot edit, delete or publish posts made by an administrator. Now that I think about that, that would make sense – sort of I think.
