What happens to scheduled posts when a member's permission is downgraded from Contributor to Limited Member?

When a member's permission is downgraded from Contributor to Limited Member, scheduled posts fail to publish. This is due to the fact that a Limited Member does not have the same permissions as a Contributor, which includes the ability to publish content. Scheduled posts that were created while the member had Contributor permissions will not go live once the permission level has been changed, resulting in the posts being unable to publish as initially planned.

In this context, it's essential to understand the implications of different permission levels within social media management tools. Each level grants specific capabilities, and when a member's access is restricted, it affects all content they were responsible for scheduling. The scheduled posts would remain in the system, but they won't publish due to insufficient permissions.

This highlights the importance of managing user roles effectively within a team. Ensuring that team members have the appropriate permissions based on their responsibilities is crucial for maintaining workflow and ensuring that content is published as intended.
