Saving revisions to a page as a a draft doesn’t seem to work – notices about various undefined variables and then a β€œheaders already sent” error.

The plugin says it will allow you to make changes to a β€œlive” page and then save it as a draft. Then you can allow other people to review the draft or just continue working on the draft. Then, when you finish your draft changes, you can publish the page and the β€œtemporary” page disappears. It’s wonderful and I suggest this as part of every website installation. I find it extremely useful. Let me know if you find this plugin as useful as I do. Gary
