Question Custom permissions

Hello!!

I need to create a category on my forum for a few users (some registered users, some authors..).

Is possible to assign individual permissions (to users) for a specific category?
Is possible to create new groups and assign group permissions?
How can I do it?

Thanks in advance!!

Currently you need to change code in order to do this. Fortunately there's only one place:

components/com_kunena/lib/kunena.session.class.php

There's variable named $allowed, which contains list of all forums that are allowed to user. To do it, you need some basic coding skills.

function updateAllowedForums() does the hard work.. You may just add few new categories if user matches.

I have taken a look to the file that you say but I don't what to do.

Can you make an example to do it? Then I only have to change the users and categories ids.

In which part of the file must I write the code?

Thanks!!

Add this into the end of updateAllowedForums() function:

That's it! Now you just need to add your special users to that list.

I've not tested if this works, so let me know..

Thanks for the quick answer Matias!!

I haven't tried it yet because in my "kunena.session.class.php" file there isn't a updateAllowedForums() function!! (I attach the file I have).

Try to use K1.5.7 (or K1.5.8 within few days).
