List of fields (comma-separated) that can be edited on published articles without creating a new version. 
I'm attemting to allow an entire group to make minor edits to knowledge articles without creating a new version.  I have my fields. 

 

List of fields that can be edited without creating a new version 

valid_to,kb_category,meta,kb_knowledge_base,can_read_user_criteria,cannot_read_user_criteria,kb_knowledge_base

 

The only roles that seem to be able to make changes to those fields have to the KB manager or owner. I need it to be on the contributor level.

Hi @Shawn34  - you're gonna want to have a look at the oob "Versioning : Make fields read only" client script. I think it's the "hasOwnProperty" function that you're going to be needing to modify...or you can just do it right in this client script perhaps?

Either way, this is a "high risk" config/customization which will likely result in skipped records during updates, so make sure you test rigorously!
