Hi John,
thanks for using XWiki. Notwithstanding Dale's inappropriate commercial
plug, there are a couple things you can explore:
- Create a process class with a validation status ("under review",
"validated"...) [1]
- Create a groovy script that listens for changes of the value of the
status property and updates a XWikiRights object attached to the page based
on the value of the validation status property [2]
- -> when the status changes, the script will apply appropriate rights
to the page
- -> you can list only "validated" on the homepage of one of your
Hope this helps,
Guillaume
