Paul Borgermans	Wednesday 06 July 2005 3:57:18 am I've thought of that, but ended up checking for roles/user groups in templates. I use it mainly to add a few buttons to edit/create from the "user" site depending on the roles/groups. But it would be a logical feature to add, maybe file an enhancement request :-) -paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
