No, not out of the box. It would require a little bit of add-on coding, for instance a datatype where you check for the current logged in user type and enable an approval flag (checkbox?) for writer + editor and then an event handler where you abort a publishing via the BeforePublish event if the approval flag is not set. Not much coding - the datatype could be written using a user control and the UserControlWrapper datatype so it's less than 100 lines of code and a complete bespoke workflow process.

Hello,
Is there a way, out of the box, to have two levels of approval? I would like to have writers, editors, and publishers.
Thanks,
Marshall

Just a though from a noob...
Maybe have your editiors be the ones to initiate the workflow. Their initiation is could be considered the first approval.
is working on a reply...
