Re: Assignment: section permission design

I don’t know how I missed this thread until now, but it’s a good one. What mary said up there ^^ is almost precisely my thoughts. However, my needs up to this point have only included per-user section restrictions. In any event, I just want to reiterate her ideas and say that I’m onboard with whatever work/help is needed.

Re: Assignment: section permission design

Oh and one other feature (not sure if previously listed):

• the ability to have a different section “Selected by default?” for each user or workgroup

Re: Assignment: section permission design

Whats the status on this subject, any developments?

I’m looking for a plugin or mod to do the following. I couldn’t find any information about this anywhere:

When a user is logged in to write/edit an article:

- only allowed categories are visible/selectable for certain privilege and above

- only allowed sections are visible/selectable for certain privilege and above

This way different staff writers could have different restrictions to what categories or sections they can publish articles. It’s a really important missing feature from Textpattern.
