    it seems that editor can’t check previous version of pages/posts and can’t restore them because OW automaticaly pop up [make revision Overlay message] when editor click page/posts edit.

    could you tell me how to avoid auto pop up massage before starting [make revision].
    Thank you for your help.

    The overlay message is there for a reason. If the user is trying to edit a published page without making a revision, the overlay message will force the user to first make a revision and then edit the page.

    If you want to avoid the overlay message for certain roles, you can do so, by giving the role ow_skip_workflow capability. This will not show the overlay message, but will allow the user to make revision and/or update the published post from post editor.

    In our case, Editors need to revice Pages/Post on workflow.
    But I understand that the users who are applied to workflow can’t skip overay message.

    Thanks for your kind reply.

    Cool. So, assigning skip_workflow capability to editor role will allow them to update the post directly.
