## Description

Simple plugin enabling the publication of post drafts.
 It allows preview of a draft
without being logged to the WordPress admin panel. Compatible with the Gutenberg
and the Classic Editor.

### How it works

Content created in WordPress from the moment a post or page is added, but before
it is published, receives draft status.
 You can send the draft to someone else,
but that person must have adequate access to the wp-admin section. The problem arises
when we want to show a draft of the post to people who do not have access to our
wp-admin panel. For this purpose, we have created the Post Draft Preview plugin.

You can find full plugin description [here](https://wpserved.com/plugins/post-draft-preview/).

Back to Lester Chan’s Drafts for Friends, which still works beautifully. This one
only works in Classic Mode.

This is the best implementation compared to all the other existing older plugins
saying they do this. I added a suggested patch and need to Support for enabling 
for Pages and Custom Post Types (CPTs). Please take a look at that, and let us know
if you need any more info to solve.
