This module extends Workflow by allowing CCK node fields to be made invisible or read-only depending on the current workflow state. The workflow state form is extended to show all node fields with appropriate controls to hide and/or disable each field for that particular state.
This functionality is useful when a workflow moves among users who have different permissions regarding the document flowing through them. Which is the case in most every workflow we've encountered.
WHAT'S NEW ?
The 1.0-beta1 release for Drupal 7 now makes Workflow Fields compatible with the latest stable release of Workflow (currently 1.2).
Various bug fixes and improvements were done in terms of usability and user-friendliness.
USAGE
When the module is enabled, the "Edit workflow state" page is augmented with a list of fields that correspond to the content types using the workflow. You can specify whether each field should be visible or read-only, per user role, when the node's workflow is in that particular state. The visibility flag applies to both the view and edit pages of the node.
FAQ
How does Workflow Fields interact with other field access control modules?
DDEV is the official local development tool of Drupal. And like Drupal, DDEV depends on the support of the open source community.
