Can users edit content from the front end?
Written by Editor   
Tuesday, 22 November 2005
Yes, if they are registered users who are logged into the system, and if you have given them permission. There are three user levels which have this power:
  • Author - This group allows a user to post content, usually via a link in the User Menu.
  • Editor - This group allows a user to post and edit any content item from the Front-end.
  • Publisher - This group allows a user to post, edit and publish any content item from the Front-end.

Can I show different users different content?
Written by Editor   
Tuesday, 22 November 2005
Within limits. The Open Source Desktop and Software Application Support User Manager currently only supports a few levels ("groups") of users. You can show different content to different groups, but you cannot show each individual user a unique set of content. Put another way, every user in the group will see the same content as the other users in the group. If you really need this functionality, there are some third party components which add additional flexibility.
