Wordpress plugin to moderate pages - content-management-system

I am developing a CMS using wordpress version 3.3.1. By default wordpress has user levels as contributors (who write a post but cannot publish or edit a post) and editors (who edit a post after it has been published but cannot write a new post).
For my system I would require a user to have the priviledges to
Write a new post which remains unpublished until the admin publishes it
Once it is publised the same user should be able to edit the post
Once edited the post should be saved as a new version and should remain unpublished till the admin publishes it.
When published, the old version should be replaced by the newer version.
Basically, my user level is a hybrid between the contributor and the editor. I have researched through a lot of plugins that wordpress offers but none would fulfil my need. Any help would be really appreciated.

Try the plug-in from Members Plug-in from Justin Tadlock. It has predefined roles, or you can set up your own levels. The plug-in has a big list of selectable options for configuring custom roles and is simple to use.

branch.io and facebook install ads attribution

We are having trouble setting up Facebook Install Ads attribution via Branch.io. Currently, Branch.io dashboard shows we have installs via Facebook link, but Facebook ad cabinet shows 0 installs.
Our setup is
I've integrated branch.io for Flutter using this plugin https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_branch_sdk (Quick Links are working OK, see p.6)
I've setup Application on Facebook (developers.facebook.com) side and linked it to application in stores (AppStore and Google Play)
I've setup Facebook as Ad partner in Branch Dashboard > Partner Management, and then created Facebook link
I've created Ads in Facebook with aim Installs and used Branch link (all as per guides)
I've followed guides on Branch's docs regarding publishing - specified that we use IDFA in AppStore, all ticks as in guide, made sure we have AdSupport.framework in xCode project, added com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:9+ in build.graddle, etc
I've exported some data from Branch Dashboard and IDFA/Android Id values were present (in Branch Dashboard > Exports > Custom Exports, as I understand, this exports Quick Links only, but still IDFA are there), this proves we are collecting these IDs.
Branch > Ads > Fraud dashboard is empty.
Branch SDK versions are 0.32.0 iOS and 5.0.1 Android
Regardless, Facebook doesn't see app Installs at all.

What did I miss?
Thanks!
A Branchster Here -
Briefly explaining that SAN partners like Google AdWords/ Facebook integration is different from conventional non-SAN partners, where we send conversion data to SAN partners and they will claim the install/ Events according to their conversion logic and respond to us via API. Branch then analyses the data from all the partners and attributes the same Install/ Event based on last touch attribution logic. You will see less data on Branch dashboard as we show only attributed data for a SAN partner than the respective SAN dashboard. Please note Branch numbers is more accurate as we show the data as per cross-channel attribution.
Here are some troubleshooting you can do-
Please match both the attribution windows.
Please make sure you have synced the timezone on both Branch and Facebook
Please make sure you have signed the Facebook MMP or attribution data won't come.
I'll keep this post updated with general troubleshooting.
Issue is resolved.
Recreating Ad campaigns with exactly same settings resolved the issue.
Unfortunately both Branch and Facebook support were not helpful. :(

Develop tweaks to facebook like app

I am doing a hobby project by implementing a phd paper on 'The privacy issues on facebook' and it suggests some tweaks to the existing facebook remove tag option like including an additional setting like 'Review posts in which you are tagged in before the audience of the post see in their News feed'. So the point being I am required to tweak facebook webpages to include these options.
So can someone give me ideas on ways to achieve it ?
My groundwork includes checking out tamper monkey to dynamically run user scripts on loading
Can this be achieved with tamper monkey or is there any developed mock facebook apps on github which I can make use of ?
Any help would be appreciated!
I have achieved it using TamperMonkey by executing scripts corresponding to the tweaks likewise suggested in one of the comments
Here is a project which contains tamper monkey scripts to perform few tweaks corresponding to facebook page
https://github.com/aarishramesh/facebook-privacy
It contains scripts for the following

export Wordpress events into a Facebook page

Using "All-in-One Event Calendar" by Timely to export the events on a Wordpress blog into a Facebook page. I have the Facebook feed connected, but the events posted into my personal profile. How can I have them just go to the specific page?
According to Time.ly, the creators of the plugin, event export to page is supported only in the Pro version. Quote from bailly, an administrator of the forum:
Although it seems like a simple feature, it is actually a very complex addition.
We believe that this is a feature above and beyond what most regular users will
need from a calendar. In addition, it helps us pay for the development team to
continue to improve the software and all the features that are asked of us.

Joomla to wordpress migration - How to migrate fb comments?

I am migrating one of my sites to new cms and I would like to know if there's a way to migrate facebook comments too together with content, users, templates and etc?
In old joomla site I was using: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/social-web/social-comments/16890 this plugin for comments, if that makes the difference :)
I am using joomla 1.5 and WordPress 3.4.1 versions. Any posible solutions are wellcome.
You cannot import Facebook comments, because Facebook needs to associate each comment with a Facebook user. They don't allow importing because they couldn't verify that the user actually made all the comments you may be saying they made, which would be a big potential area for spam or misuse.

Wordpress User Rating another User plugin

I like to have a feature in my website such as If a user comments a video or his/her comment gets a upvote by a another user. The posted user will gather points. Also if the site Admin wishes they can give more points like +500 for a user. I want things similar to ebay.
Do we have any plugin for this in Wordpress. If there is no plugin available If I try to build this plugin Will that take more time. I am new to wordpress.
Please suggest me.
You basically need a commenting system which has options to do voting by another users. Take a look at Disqus or Livefyre. Both has functionality that you are looking for and very easy to integrate to a WordPress website.
