I think it was discussed earlier here that you can't give different roles different *default* settings for each content type, but you can give users access by role to view and publish content. The Mercer book has a pretty good overview of user permissions. I'm sure there is more info in the
<a href="http://Drupal.org">Drupal.org</a> Handbook.<br><br>You need to go into User Management and first create the roles you want. When I am setting up sites for other people, I typically have a role for webmaster (me), another for site owner, and so on. For my scout troop site there is webmaster, scout leader, and scout member. Then you can go into the User Management/Access Control screen and check off the permissions for each role.
<br><br>You may want to go to User Settings and make it so new registrations need admin approval. <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 5/30/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Bruce Whealton</b> <<a href="mailto:brucewhealton@yahoo.com">
