Blog Permissions

Is it possible to configure the mojoPortal Blog control so that registered users can only post new Blog items or edit their own Blog items?

Re: Blog Permissions

No. You can create as many different blogs as you like and you can give each user permission on his own blog, then you could aggregate all the blogs together using the Feed Manager feature. This way each user can only add/edit posts in their own blog.

However, the blog is a powerful feature, you should not let just anyone who registers on your site use it, it is designed for trusted users. It allows rich media, javascript etc which can be used for good or ill. A bad person can do very bad things if you let them embed javascript into your site.

Best,

Joe

Re: Blog Permissions

Blogs for individual people: Create a role for each blog. Create each blog, assign edit rights to the individual roles on each blog. assign users to those edit roles.

Feed Manager is not in the admin menu, it's a feature you drop onto any page of your choice and point it to the RSS feed(s) to consume.
