All web sites built on Conversant now support access restrictions (security settings) on files and folders. The new feature allows you to limit access to parts or all of your site:
* to members only
* to administrators only
* to specific members
* to members of a group
These 'access restrictions' are automatically inherited from a folder to all of the subfolders and files (pages) within that folder. You can (of course) override the security on any page or folder that is inheriting its security from a parent folder. Why use it? Well, you could create private views of your discussion forum, or have a section of your site that's only available to admins, or member, or... whatever. You can set the access restrictions through the Files & Folders section of the admin area (ie, the structure editor). There are actually two page properties: one popup menu for setting the 'type' of restriction, and the other for setting the group id or username. Both items have full help text available. Let us know if you have any questions! Seth |
