Re: [matrix] User Access

Hello Marilyn! Good to hear from you. :)

User Access - Currently you can limit users to specific sections. So if you want one user to be able to update news only, and another can update events that's no problem. You can also choose who gets "admin" access to adjust program settings.

But if a user has access to say "events", they'll have access to all the events in that section. Not just their own. So you can limit access by section, but not by record within the record. We're actually working on that feature for the next release.

Will that work for you? Let me know if you have any other questions.

That sounds excellent.

Can restricted users currently publish additional articles/pages from within sections, similar to the "publish article" feature in ArtMan? (That is, assuming the user can be given permission to do that without loading them down with the admin options.)

Thanks!

Yes, a user could add a event or news release and have it go live on the website right away. All without having access to the admin menu.
