Krischan Hauschkez	Thursday 12 October 2006 2:41:40 am Hi! I try to integrate a forum and some folders that shall be visible only after login and only for certain users. Can you please tell me how I can manage that? I tried to hide the node. That worked, but I don't know how to make it visible again for editors, for example. Thanks, Krischan
Claudia Kosny	Thursday 12 October 2006 4:59:27 am Hi Krischan I don't know whether it is possible to show hidden nodes using permissions. You can specify during a fetch that the visibility should be ignored so maybe you can adjust the fetch function depending on who is logged in. http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_8/reference/modules/content/fetch_functions/list You could also set up an extra siteaccess for the editors where ShowHiddenNodes is setto true in the site.ini. A better way (I think) is to create a section which contains the forum and the folders. Then allow access to this section only for the editors. http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/user_manual/3_8/daily_tasks/creating_a_protected_area Greetings from Luxembourg Claudia

ShowHiddenNodes is setto true in the site.ini.
