*Hello all, I'm currently working on drupal -5.11. I've following hierarchy in my site. *
* *
* Section 1.1*
* Section 1.2*
* ---------Section 1.2.1*
* ---------Section 1.2.2*
* ---------Section 1.2.3*
* Section 1.3*
* ---------Section 1.3.1*
* Section 1.4*
There are some Administers (we'll call them Section Admin and Site Admin). Site Admin will create some Section Admin and will assign them sections.
And section Admin will only create the sub sections, e.g Section 1.2.1 and so on.
Now the basic access control is One Section Admin can create sub sections only in his allocated section. And subsection is nothing but a page. There is setting in create page, Menu Settings. In that Section Admin can give any parent element. So, the security gets compromised here. I dont want that.
So, i want to modify it in such a way that , If Section Admin is of section 1, then in menu settings Parent element will be by default only, Section 1, Section 1.1, Section 1.1.1 and so on.
So is there any way? Sorry for so much long query. But i'm badly stuck at this point which is the last functionality.
Regards, Vishakha
So the same person who can admin 1.2.1 can admin 1.2.2 and would be allowed to make changes and add content for these sections?
There may be a more elegant solution but based on my understanding of what you are trying to do you could do this by creating many content types. In the security for the content types you can control what roles can edit/create/delete them. You would also need a role for each level. I know this would work but there may be a more elegant solution out there but maybe this can spark some creativity.
