I have a developer that has a post on the Drupal.org site. He is needing help with publishing content vs. non-published content based on paid membership. Please - if anyone can help lead him in the right direction, I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks,
Tami

I added a little advice...
I provided some feedback.
I advised that he should implement a cookie system that provided a user with a special auth cookie based on his user role. this would provide an out from having to deal with drupal's trigger/actions system which really only works with a limited list of options, and creating a custom module to handle the "cookie" method would be much more feasible with both developer time and reduce headache time.
Pending on how things go, I am willing to provide more assistance in this is desired.

Just make a view that only the paid role can view. And then in the filters don't filter out unpublished content.
