Membership capability?

Do the Devs envisage TxP having built in membership capability?

At it’s basic level I’m talking about a system where each user (public not admin) can be granted a range of privileges, letting you define with precise control what each user is permitted to do on the front end.

Re: Membership capability?

Lee,

I don’t know exactly what you need…but for a solution that isn’t built-in there’s amember
I think jstubbs is using that on some of his TXP sites. Might acomplish what you need for now.

We do not have any plans in that direction.

Who is we? Is that we the core developers? We the community?

What dictates which features get developed?

As far as this question relates to my previous answer: Yes.

We the community?

I do not know which plans members of the community have with regard to memberships.

Nothing dictates the development of features.

A mixture of factors enables the introduction of features: Fun, gut feeling, useful parts of paid projects which core developers re-integrate into the core, a frequent request which serves a broader audience, contributed code, compatibility.
