I have a few “sections” of my site that I want to assign restricted access privileges to, so that only selected member groups can view them. However, I’m not sure of how to do this.
I’d *like* to select certain categories (or sub-categories) that only certain member groups can view. However, it appears that templates are (rather counter-intuitively) the place where front-end access controls are handled. This is problematic because I’d like to use the same template in multiple categories, some of which will allow access to everyone and some of which will be restricted. Duplicating a template based solely on its permissions seems unnecessarily complex when it is the category’s information that needs to be access-restricted.
Or perhaps I’m barking up the wrong tree entirely and there’s a better way to handle front-end access restrictions?
Thanks for any insight,
Matthew
