Is it possible to set up users to be able to access the admin section but only be able to edit one page in the entire site? usisng the cms software.

I want to build a site, where it is universally the same, but each group who registers with the site will get 1 free webpage to put on whatever they want to about their club or organisation.

But i only want each user to be able to alter their individual page nothing else.

Hi!

If each user only have one page it seems easier to not let them in back-end (admin section) at all. You may want to take a look at http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/inlineedit/

You could probably also do this with Company Directory together with FEU and CC.
For the front-end editing: enter something like this:

Code: Select all

{if $ccuser->loggedin() && $ccuser->memberof('company_editors')}
{CompanyDirectory action='fe_edit' companyid=$ccuser->property('company_id')}
{/if}
(see http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php?topic=18446.0;prev_next=next)

Or, try News with feusubmit. (what you want may then be achieved together with different categories for each member)

Good luck!

If you create the user, but don't add them to any group (Admin, editor, etc), you can give them editor rights to a single page, by selecting them in the Additional Editors list for the page.

It's simple

When creating the new user account DON"T associate that user with any groups
then create the new page
and mark that new user as an 'additional editor' for the page.
