As per title, I've implemented an Articles Queue which contains all "Draft" articles and "Awaiting" articles (Awaiting = Scheduled publishing).
In order to view this queue, the viewing user must have the AMS: Article moderator permissions "View draft articles" and or "View awaiting articles".
The AMS moderator permission "View awaiting articles", is a NEW permission added to AMS 2.2.9. This permission is required in order to view an article that is in the article_state 'awaiting', which means that its awaiting publishing in the future aka scheduled publishing).
Those with the appropriate permissions will see a new link in the Moderator Bar titled "Articles queue" along with a number. The number is the total amount of Draft Articles and Awaiting Articles in the system. There is also a link in the Moderator tools drop down.
The Articles queue is just a simple layout with some very basic information. Its not designed to perform actions like the Approval Queue is, its more of a listing interface for Moderators/Staff/Admins so they can see whats going on as well as being able to access and perform actions (like deleting drafts that are 5 years old from a member that has not visited the site in 5 years).
If you can view this listing and see an article in this listing, then you are able to VIEW the article and perform any actions (edit, delete, publish etc).
Note: If the viewing user only has permission to view Draft's, then they won't see any articles that are "Awaiting" (and vice versa).
The listing is paginated and filterable.
