Editor
In Joomla, authors may edit their own content once it has been published. Additionally editors
and publishers may also edit the content submitted by any author on the site. Editing is the
same process that was just used to submit new content, all of the screens are the same and
they perform the same function. The only slight difference that you need to understand is how
to access the article to be able to edited.
When logged into the Joomla system authors will see a small edit icon next to the articles that
they have been responsible for publishing. Clicking on this icon will bring up the content edit
window containing the same screens that we just discussed for authoring content. From here
the author may edit their content and save the article once again.
As you can see from the picture below, editors and publishers will see this icon associated with
any content on the system allowing them to edit any article by any author.
Publisher
Publishers have all the same abilities of authors and editors plus the ability to actually publish
articles on the web site. All the same controls that we just saw for submitting and editing
