Hi,

you wrote: An Administrator can -

Access the Admin panel and create new pages and edit/delete all existing pages except those that have been marked by the Super Admin has having only super-admin access (usually done to prevent the site owners from accidently modifying them).

But I can't find how to restrict all the website templates to super-admin only, BUT the blog template to admin?
Hi Paolo,

Not sure if I follow you correctly.
Can you please explain in detail exactly how you propose to place the varying restrictions? Is it on the front-end, back-end or both?
Hi KK,

I need all to pages to be unrestricted to all viewers on the front-end (except one that I've marked for authenticated user only, for the uploads), but I don't want the people in charge of the blog to be able to modify anything on the back-end but the blog.

On the back-end I would have only the super-admin (level 10) to access everything (as usual), and the admin (level 7) to access only the pages related to the blogs for editing and adding articles.
Paolo, as things stand at the moment, access restriction is pretty coarse (things are changing as work progresses on the new version). I don't think we can do that out of the box.

If you don't want the normal admins to access some of the templates, you can declare them as 'hidden'. Any drawbacks with this approach?
That should suffice, but funnily, when I tag

<cms:template clonable='1' nested_pages='1' hidden='1' >

it works only on the index.php, not the other templates...

I mean all the other templates remains visible, but the index.php

( I refreshed, and visited the pages, and even tried on two browsers)
Hi KK,

forget it, it worked when I disabled the cache and visited the pages.

Ok, that solution will do perfectly!

Best regards,
Paolo

PS: I love your CMS, it's the best ever! I'm looking forward to test the new version soon... Cheers!
I am glad it helped :)
