Co Author Permissions

19 years ago
As an added feature to Co Authors, the main author should be able to define what permissions each co author gets.

For example:

member1: access to pages, no access to variables, access to items
member2: full access
member3: access to items, no access to pages, no access to variables


And it is displayed in a checkbox format. This way you can also add a Sneak Preview for members. Like adding a full restriction for a co author, so all he can do is look, but not touch. By the way, "access" means able to edit, so you can still See the pages, or the variables, just dont have power to change it.

My thoughts on the co-author thing is that you have your friends as co-authors, or, people who you trust. This is one of the reasons it's limited to 5 members -- so you can't add anyone and everyone.

So, it's more like a feeling of trust amongst the C/A
