I need a setup where users can update a page and then submit it for approval/activation in AEM 6.2. The page would be submitted to workflow where a content approver/administrator would review and publish the page. This seems like a common setup for content managment, but I can't figure out how to do it in AEM.
I have done the following:
However, when a user does NOT have replicate permission, the "publish" option does not show up at all. This makes sense, really....but then, how does one go about setting up a workflow like this?
From what I've read about this in earlier versions of AEM/CQ5, the replicate/publish option was still available to all users, but it would automatically kick off workflow if the user did not have replicate permissions. (see Start a workflow on page activation without activating the page in CQ5 )
this seems to have changed in 6.2. can anyone help?
I have tried looking up online, but found nothing

There is a native workflow to handle that. It's named Publish Example
. see it here: http://localhost:4502/etc/workflow/models/publish_example.html . I believe that it's better then the automatic triggering cause the author actually knows he triggers a workflow (whilst when it happened automatically there was no info about that). To explicitly call it you have to either from /siteadmin
select a page and click workflow on it, or do it from sidekick or in touch.
