I'm trying to configure the workbench moderation module so that a user with a content editor role can perform all tasks related to maintaining a certain content type. For example I would like a content editor to create new draft content, publish this content, unpublish, etc.
However, the problem I've encountered is after this content editor saves a new draft of some existing published content, this draft seems to be disregarded. The tabs that appear across the top are still just 'View Published', 'New Draft' and 'Moderate' (there is no 'View Draft'). Also a new 'green' entry appears in the moderation tab stating
'This is the published revision.'
From Draft --> Published on 05/08/2015 - 23:49 by Anonymous
(I am unsure where anonymous is coming from, it is not the user name in this case)
I have made sure all content related permissions are set for the content editor role, with the exception of the 'Administer content', 'Bypass content access control' and 'Administer content types'. When the 'administer content' permission is switched on for the role type, this problem does not occur and a 'content editor' user can easily view drafts of already published content and also save new unpublished drafts of this content.
The content I am trying to set the workbench moderation up for has come from a Drupal Migration.
I'm woking with Workbench Moderation 7.x-1.4.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar or can anyone provide any advice on this?

The issue in this case was
The issue in this case was due to the book module overriding some permissions set by the workbench module.
