Viewer limit heirarchy

Post by DaveV »

I need the ability to have multiple tiers of viewer groups for an online systems manual. i.e. employees see some FAQ's, managers see the employee posts, plus higher level posts. Department heads see theirs, plus the two lower tiers. In other words, I need each viewer level to be able to see their own level, and all levels below them.

If I can group FAQ's into multiple groups, that could work but I don't think it's possible yet, is it? And if not, how long do we wait?

This could be the "deal breaker" between using this, and abandoning it completely.

Hi,

the multiple group feature is prepared, but not implemented yet. We could do that during the 2.8 development. The current plan is to release the final version of 2.8 unitl the end of the year. This feature isn't done yet because no one really needed it.

See viewtopic.php?f=4&t=10871 for a similar request.

Add my name to the list of people who would really like to see this, sooner than later. I'm trying to implement this for our company's website to replace a rather poorly managed WIKI, and can't use it without this feature.

Hi,

okay, I'll add it on the 2.8 list, you're lucky.
