Running into problems

Monday, September 15th, 2008

The development of the plugin is in progress. Most of the regular features are working, but I still need to make the “set permissions quickly” and “copy permissions” form in the backend management section.

However, there are some problems that I’m facing at the moment. I can’t figure out how to hide the comments of hidden posts. At the moment, users without access to a protected post can still read the comments by visiting the comments feed.

I’ve signed up for a plugin hosting account at wordpress.org so hopefully the first release of the plugin will be available soon.

Intranet / Extranet plugin for Wordpress

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

I’ve started developing a plugin for Wordpress that will make it possible to allow named users to access specific content on a wordpress blog system.

Features:

  • Select users who will have access to posts/pages when writing/editing.
  • Quickly set permissions of many posts/pages without opening each one.
  • Copy permissions from one user to another.
  • Hide content of protected posts/pages.
  • Exclude protected posts/pages from appearing in the menu.
  • Exclude protected posts/pages from appearing in feeds.
