About user management

Hi everyone I’m new at textpattern and infact I barely know the basics of PHP, going straight to the topic

I want to know if there is a possible way for me to assign my users to a specific designation so that they wont clutter around TXP everytime they want to

add, update, or delete thier posts and uploads, I’ll try to make my self clear I know it’s kinda confusing,

elaborating it further:

ok so this is the situation I’m building a page named: “admission.php”

now I created a user limited to only as a “writer” named as “user_admission”

guessing by the name… yes if we’re thinking the same thing, I intentionally

created “user_admission” to manage the content of the page I currently created (admission.php)

now here’s the catch…

I want to designate user_admission “TO ONLY HAVE ACCESS” to the contents of admission.php, no where else

everytime he log in on TXP, he can only view his “OWN PAGE” which is “admission.php” that I designated to him,

and ‘add, edit, delete’ ONLY his posts and will not be enable to view the files and articles of other users…

I would like to know if TXP is capable of granting me those control over my users, thank you so much for

taking your time reading through my post,

I would highly appreciate any form help coming from you the experts, I give you my deepest gratitude.

regards…

Jerric

Re: About user management

Did you read up on User roles and permissions?
There is also a plugin that lets you modify these.
