Have you ever wanted to label a WordPress post something other than „Draft” or „Pending Review”? The PublishPress Statuses plugin can help.
PublishPress Statuses allows you to create additional statuses for your posts. For example, you can add statuses such as „In Progress”, „Needs Work”, or „Rejected”. You can also control which users can move posts to each status.
Why Use PublishPress Statuses?
WordPress provides you with only two statuses for your post: „Draft” or „Pending Review”. This means that before your content is published it can only be labeled as „Draft” or „Pending Review”.
Those statuses are too limiting for many publishers. For example, what label should you use for content that is assigned to a writer? What label should you use for a post that needs work, or has been rejected? With the PublishPress Statuses plugin, you can add new statuses that accurately describe the stages of your publishing process.
There are two types of statuses:
- Pre-Publication Statues: For posts that are unpublished.
- Visibility Statuses: For posts that are published.
Pre-Publication Statuses
Go to the „Statuses” area in your WordPress site and you’ll six different statuses. This is the main workflow. Every post on your site must use this workflow. However, with PublishPress Statuses, you can move, rerrange and add to this workflow.
- Draft: This is the WordPress default status and can not be modified.
- Pitch: This is a new status. You can use this status to indicate the post is just an idea.
- Assigned: This is a new status. You can use this status to show the post has been given to a writer.
- In Progress: This is a new status. You can use this status to if the post is being worked on.
- Approved: This is a new status. You can use this status to when the post has been accepted and it ready for publication.
- Pending Review: This is a core WordPress status and can not be modified.

In addition to the default workflow, PublishPress Statuses allows you to create alternate workflows. These statuses are for content that is not on a direct path to publication. Examples of these alternate workflows include „Deferred”, „Needs Work” and „Rejected”.
Custom Permissions for Pre-Published Statuses
PublishPress Statuses allows to decide which users can move content to which statuses. Go to „Statuses” then „Settings” and click the „Roles” tab. This allows you to choose which user roles can move a post to this status.

You can take this further and decide who assign, edit, and delete content in each status. This is possible if you also use the PublishPress Permissions Pro plugin.

Visibility Statuses
Visibility Statuses allow you to control who can access published content on your WordPress site.
The PublishPress Statuses plugin integrates with the PublishPress Permissions Pro plugin. This integration allows you to create custom visibility statuses and control who can access the content on the front of your WordPress site.
We call this feature „Custom Visibility Statuses” because WordPress has three core visibility statuses:
- Scheduled: This post is scheduled for future publication.
- Published: This post is available to general public.
- Private: This post is published for users logged in to your WordPress site.
Using PublishPress Statuses and PublishPress Permissions Pro together, you can add your own custom visiblity statuses.
Custom Permissions for Visibility Statuses
The PublishPress Statuses plugin integrates with the PublishPress Permissions Pro plugins and PublishPress Capabilities Pro plugins. These allow you to control capabilities for each visibility status. You can decide who can assign, read, edit and delete content in each status.

Can I Create Nested Statuses / Workflow Branches?
-
The PublishPress Statuses plugin allows you to create workflow branches. These are separate parts of the workflow are displayed shown as indented, away from the main workflow. These branches be used to take content away from the core approval process.

To create workflow branches, use the drag-and-drop handles next to each status to place them into branches

However, these two statuses have different meanings. Draft means „This post is not ready to publish. I’m still working on it.” Pending Review means „This post is ready. Someone else can approve and publish”.
A post in the Draft status is not published and is not visible to the public. Once a post is published, the „Draft” status is the default choice for unpublishing the post.
-
Does PublishPress Statuses Support the Scheduled Status?

A post in the Future status is not published yet, but is scheduled to be published in a future date.

How does this compare to the Extended Post Status plugin?
-
Extended Post Status is a very useful plugin. With PublshPress Statuses we’re aiming to provide more advanced features such as custom capabilities, workflow branching, icons, colors, and much more.
