Adding Permissions to Blogs

Let's change the permissions to allow Registered users to create their own blog.

 Note

Some permissions can be configured on the Create/Edit Blog page:
  • If you want to allow other users to post entries to your blog, enable the Allow other user to post in this blog option.
  • If you want to allow other users to post comments to your blog, enable the Allow comments option.


From the List Blogs page:

  1. Select Actions > Permissions for a blog.
    Change the permissions of the blog. {IMG}
  2. The Assign Permissions page appears.
    Assign Permissions
  3. Use the Assign Permissions page to assign the blog-specific permissions to each user group.

     Tip

    Use the Select Groups tab to select which groups appear on the Assign Permissions tab.
  4. Select the Can post to blog option for the Registered group.
    Notice that Tiki automatically enables the permission for all groups that inherit permissions from the Registered group, such as the Forum Admins.
  5. Click Assign. Tiki prompts for confirmation, then saves the information and reloads the page.


Now, registered users can create a blog post.
