I'm create a simple site (intranet) where I'm a admin, but when submiting a content, this stay as: pendent. Why? I'm the administrator of Liferay Portal.
I don't have experience with Liferay, but it's so complicated this workflow.
You need to approve the content as some user that has appropriate role in the document's workflow.
You can do it in control-panel -> my workflow tasks.
First assign the task to you and then approve the content.

When i check the formsflow application,i found that user with designer role can change the workflow of an already published form.if he do so , what happens to the existing submitted application and task? will it affect the existing task?
Will the user has the permission to edit the submitted form?
I have a problem with the Workflow of liferay 7.1.
I have created a form for the request of vacation and permissions. Also, I have created some roles which I have assigned to specific users.
I wish the request would achieve to a specified role (I thought an if or switch) and the notification to the users with another role.
I would like to work with the IDs because every role has its ID so I can manage them easier.
Does anyone know how to make this task and this situation?
For example es. role HR (id 33377), role Developer (id 33388).
I need a setup where users can update a page and then submit it for approval/activation in AEM 6.2. The page would be submitted to workflow where a content approver/administrator would review and publish the page. This seems like a common setup for content managment, but I can't figure out how to do it in AEM.
I have done the following:
setup a user that has permission to update but does NOT have
replicate permission on folderX.
setup users with update and replicate permissions on folderX and added them to a group "content-authors-approvers"
created a workflow where the first step of the workflow is the page will be submitted for approval and publication to member of "content-authors-approvers" group
assigned this workflow to folderX
However, when a user does NOT have replicate permission, the "publish" option does not show up at all. This makes sense, really....but then, how does one go about setting up a workflow like this?
From what I've read about this in earlier versions of AEM/CQ5, the replicate/publish option was still available to all users, but it would automatically kick off workflow if the user did not have replicate permissions. (see Start a workflow on page activation without activating the page in CQ5 )
this seems to have changed in 6.2. can anyone help?
I have tried looking up online, but found nothing
There is a native workflow to handle that. It's named Publish Example. see it here: http://localhost:4502/etc/workflow/models/publish_example.html . I believe that it's better then the automatic triggering cause the author actually knows he triggers a workflow (whilst when it happened automatically there was no info about that). To explicitly call it you have to either from /siteadmin select a page and click workflow on it, or do it from sidekick or in touch.

I have looked around quite a bit, and understand workflow, and putting steps in place in terms od content editing but cannot see anywhere how I restrict roles to steps.
In short I want the bulk of my users to be able to edit and then submit for approval but not be able to publish (save).
Then I need a couple of 'global/super' users to be the only ones who are able to approve and then publish the content live.
This will apply to new pages, edits to existing, everything basically.
Users who can edit and save for approval.
The super users who can publish if they approve.
In the Workflow application there is Security tab per each step - advanced workflow only OR security tab for each custom step in basic workflow.
You can learn more here:

Basic publishing with custom step:
I’ve designed a form for a user here to collect data for a workflow. I used SharePoint designer to build a custom approval form. When the workflow is initiated I am receive and email to ‘Edit Task’. I click on the Edit Task button and it takes to the form. I enter the information requested and my tasks lists and calendar are updated. However when I set the email to go to the user who will be entering the data( approval) the ‘Edit Task’ Button takes him to an error page “404 page not found”.
It seems that when I created the form SharePoint saved it to a local server and not to the Sharepoint server. I notice that the out of the box workflows go to this directory: http://vaww.visn16.portal.va.gov/sites/HOU/IMS/VistA/Help/_layouts/...
However my form is in the Workflow directory: http://vaww.visn16.portal.va.gov/sites/HOU/IMS/VistA/Help/Workflows/
I use my Explorer to go to My Network Places and I can see the directory for my workflow and workflow form. However other users with my same permission can get to the Workflow directory but only they cannot see the form. The other files associated with the workflow are present for them. Why can’t others access(see) the form? Users that I have asked to test this workflow all have full permissions like me.
Make sure the page that you navigate to when you click the Edit Task button is not checked out to you. If it is checked out, check it in and others should be able to see the page.
