The BlueSpicePageAccess extension allows you to restrict access to a page to specific user groups. The restriction is done by inserting the pageaccess tag. The access restriction per page is done on a group basis. "Access" here means all actions including reading and editing.
Instructions
To add this tag using VisualEditor:
- Position the cursor at the top of your page.
- Select Add Content Droplet.
- Select Page Access Permission in the dialog box.
- Click Insert.
- Add the desired groups.
- Click Insert.
The page now shows an info header with the groups that have access to this page.
In source view, the tag looks like this:
<bs:pageaccess groups="sysop, secure1,secure2" />
Important!A user can only restrict access to the groups that user belongs to. This is a security feature that prevents users from locking themselves out of a page. In addition, users in the sysop group always have access to these pages.
