Private Groups with Roles as Access Control

Archived Mike McMullen 10 years ago

It would be great to have Private Categories which only display to users of a certain Role - this would be nice for software companies who run Beta programs, for example. Only users who were in the Beta user Role could see and post in their assigned categories.

Hello Mike,

I guess it's already possible. Create new role and set permissions to it - see private objects. Create new category that is private and only users in that role + roles with see private objects will see and use categories and topics inside them.

Though, you'll miss the feature to discuss something internally only in company

Hi Stas - I understand, but I'd think it's far more useful to let some external users see a certain category, but not all Private categories. This retains the ability to use "internal" private categories.

In this case, invite 1 or several users to specific topicwill be more flexible in order to get expected results.

We'll see what we can do after 3.0 release
