My b2evolution Version: 3.3.3

Hi there,

I have two blogs.

I want to allow a user to be an administrator/editor of one of them but not the other.

Can anyone tell me what settings would accomplish that?

Thanks,

First you need to enable user permissions on Blog settings > Features tab

Set permissions to "admin" for one user, and "not a member" for another.

Hello again,

I think I didn't ask the question clearly.

Say I have blog A and blog B.

I want to set up user Joe to have admin authority on blog A but not on blog B.

How can I do that?

Thanks again!

I understood you right.
The exact settings on Blog settings > User perms tab for user Joe would be "Owner" in blog A and "Not Member" in blog B

By default users can't manage blogs, so all you need is assign an owner to the blogs you want.

I'm having a lot of trouble with this, Sam.

Can you tell me what "user level" should be set at and what "user group" to assign?

I've made a little progress...set level 7 and group "bloggers".

seems like some of the options I see as Admin, like the dashboard, don't show up even for the blog I want him to have control of, but at least it's a start.

User level and group shouldn't matter.
You can leave a user in "Basic users" group, and make that user an "Owner" of a blog, the user will then have full access to blog options and posts.

I'm just not seeing "owner" anywhere

Make sure you are looking at Blog settings > User perms > "Simple" page

what's the difference between Owner and Admin?

11 Oct 20, 2010 17:53

It said "custom" and the settings were almost the same as "owner" except that I turned off certain types of blog postings that we don't use (deprecated, etc...)

Check Owner and switch to advanced view, then do this with Admin checked ;)
