Hi @ragnar22 you can use Advanced Access Manager Plugin which it has a lot of features to deal with user roles, capabilities and permissions. Try it and post your results
Hi @yehanny, thanks for the suggestion,i think the Plugins is pretty good, but i think it is now the kind of plugins i am looking for..any suggestion again
thanks..
For a limited number of editor/contributor groups, custom post types can be used. Each post type can have its own set of capabilities so it’s easy to compartmentalize the posts.
At some point this scheme begins to fall apart. It’s impractical to have dozens of post types for dozens of editor groups. In that case the groups need to be managed by meta data where the meta is checked against the current user much like a capability is checked. It’s not too difficult to only permit publishing based on meta data, but preventing the viewing of posts outside of the group is quite difficult. WP is setup for most posts to be publicly viewable, so restricting viewing to one group works against WP’s fundamental nature.
It can probably be done, but it may involve overriding a lot of admin classes to pull it off. I’m not sure it can be done 100% securely, but probably secure enough to deter all but the most tech savvy users.
hi @bcworkz,, thanks for the info..i think its quit difficult to do..ehehe
Yes, it would be for a normal single site WP installation. But it has been done before and it’s available for your use. It’s called Network or Multisite WP 🙂
It’s probably not what you had in mind, but it does fit the criteria you presented. You’ll end up with several sub-sites, one for each editor. They can be accessed by different sub-domain or sub-directory URLs.
Hi @bcworkz., i am not using multisite, and i didn’t try it before, i’m only using single WP installation, but I know that multisite WP..
