AEM 6.1 - Unlocking a page

Hello All,

Based on documentation, it seems like a page locked by a user can either be unlocked by same user or by an administrator.[1]

Is there a way to allow group of users (who do not have administrative privileges) have this facility?

Thanks

"Locking a page should be used with care as the only person who can unlock a page is the person who locked it (or an account with administrator privileges)."

Jitendra,

Some of the use cases like. Power users from content authors feel they need to have ability to unlock the pages locked by other users (could be users are located in different time zones and an urgent change/publish required on that page.). Unless they are System Administrator they cannot unlock.

Hi Shishank,

Yes, As Scott stated, there is no way of unlocking the pages from other groups.
Only administrator or a person who locked the page can only unlock the page.
