Short overview, for those who missed it the first time, for each section,
there will be a table at the bottom of the section editor that lets you
assign permissions to each group for that section, i.e.:
post_comments read_comments post_stories read_stories
Anonymous X X
Users X X X X
SuperUser X X X X
ok, so thats horribly formatted, but you get the idea
and so on. You can set it for each section.
Now onto my question:
Right now, when you try to view a section (via ?op=section;section=foo )
if you don't have permission, it says "Sorry, you don't have permission
to view stories posted to this section", same for if you try to view a
story directly if its in a section you don't have read_story permission on.
Is that how you scoop admins would like it? Or would you rather have it
completely hidden? Like, they can't even tell it exists? I could also
do it with a var, like show_sect_denied or something, that would be 1 if
you want it to let people know that they don't have permission, and 0
if you want it to be fully 'hidden'.
hmm... now that I think about it more, what about if you could set which
sections showed that warning, and which didn't. So you could "uber1337
secrit admin sections" and ones that you had to have certain permissions
to see, etc.
