How to allow a group of user to unlock page which is locked by author except admin user

[manank71376227]

I have author rights in AEM. I have locked a page.

when i am trying to unlock page by login as different user then, how can i unlock the page?

Is there any way that a group of users can unlock page which is locked by different user.

Hi

Only the user who locked the page, or the “admin” user, can unlock it.  Members of the administrators group, apart from the “admin” user, cannot unlock pages which were locked by other users.

"You can only unlock locked pages if you locked the page or if you have administrator privileges."Otherwise it is not possible.

Please have a look at this statement mentioned in documentation :

UNLOCKING PAGES

You can only unlock locked pages if you locked the page or if you have administrator privileges(Admin user).

I hope this would help you.

Thanks and Regards
