How do I preview my blog entry before publishing it? My only blogger is the super admin and all entries are created from the backend, draft is not an option, so I'm forced to publish without knowing how my entry will look on the frontend.
I need to be able to create an entry, preview what it'll look like and then publish it when I am ready so that my subscribers receive the notification email at the proper time of publication.
I tried a way around this by creating a testing blog (with notification turned off) which I could keep off the frontpage, and I would use as my testing environment, which I could then make a fresh entry knowing exactly how it would look on the frontend. However, I have the archive module working on the blog, and this entry appears in the archives (so users could access it that way), therefore I need to know how to turn off archiving on specific entries. Providing there is not a more efficient way (above).
Regards,
