Dashboard: Draft Posts

WordPress 2.5 introduces a widgetized dashboard and some people had been wanting to see a list of their drafts posts on the dashboard, so I wrote this widget.

  1. Hi! This is very needable plugin. But there are one problem - it shows only one draft-recrod.

    Try version 1.0.1. I just uploaded it and it should be appearing on WP.org shortly.

  3. Lots of thanks!
    As far as I can judge WP functions does not work correctly?

    No, they work fine, I was just using them incorrectly. It was my fault. :)

  5. Draft posts list includes draft pages. Is it correct?

    Yep.

  7. just for clarifying, it’s only viewable by admins right?

    Only people with the “edit_posts” capability can view the widget.

  9. I think this is great, and is going to be really useful - but I have an enhancement request.

    I’d like to be able to see not only the draft posts written by me, but those posts written by others and waiting for review.

    Is there an easy way to make this happen?

    It should show the latest 25 drafts by anyone. I didn’t code in any user-specific code.

    Seems I forgot to make a page for it here.

  11. Fab! I love it to bits, and can now see my drafts and the posts written by others that I have to review - on my dashboard. Just where I need them.

    Thank you so much
