Blog capability question

[nvisioncurtis]

Hi All,

I need to create two kinds of blogs...

The first kind are individual blogs and the second kind are group blogs where a few different writers write on a blog subject.

So the main difference here is access where multiple published have access to the group topic blog and then each individual has access to there own blog.

Is this doable?

Hi,

You can create two news archives and a group. then go into group settings and in news permissions just select which news archive can be edited by the group.

For each individual blog you can set up a group for each in person or set individual permissions in the user settings page and then select the blog archive this person can edit.

You may need to hide certain fields so a user can't extend their own permissions or allow them to make themselves administrators.

i believe 2.8 will have extended features which make it easier to stop users editing permissions or edit administrators accounts

Hope this helps
