==="Submit for Review"===
Edit wp-admin/includes/post.php. After line 71 (in version 2.3.3) add:
// START FIX
if ('publish' == $_POST['post_status'] && !current_user_can( 'publish_posts' )) {
$post =& get_post( $post_ID );
if ('publish' != $post->post_status)
$_POST['post_status'] = 'pending';
}
// END FIX
==Issue Manager Plugin==
===To Publish an Issue===
#Assign timestamps to the articles in the order you want them to appear on the page (newest timestamps go at the top of the page)
#Go to the Issue Manager page in the "Manage" tab.
#Click "Publish" next to the category for the issue you want to publish.
#All "Pending Review" articles with the given category (that don't also have an "unpublished" category) will be published, with the timestamps updated to about now, retaining the order established earlier.
===To Prevent Early Publication of Articles===
#Go to the Issue Manager page in the "Manage" tab.
#Click "Unpublish" next to the category for the issue you want to keep unpublished.
#Any published articles with that category will revert to "Pending Review" status. Any new articles you attempt to publish will instead be set to "Pending Review".
