Hi All, I'm setting up some user roles in my new project and I have noticed there is a new function limitation on certain modules called Group with the options "Any" and "Self". What does this option actually do? I have been trying to test it to see what it actually does but I can't tell if it is being implemented or not, its got me quite confused, I checked the docs and there is no mention of this new option: http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/concepts_and_basics/access_control My initial thoughts were that it restricted the function to the group the user belongs to, for example: I expected that if User 1 in GroupA creates an article and this Group limitation is set to self on the content read function for the section or node that the article was created in, then only users in Group A would be able to read the article and users in other groups would be denied. Am I understanding this correctly? Can someone shed some light on this for me? If my understanding is on track then this new option would appear to be something I would personally find very useful but at this stage I'm not sure how to use it.
Cheers
Nathan.
