With this version of wfsections I mentioned currently it is only the named author of the article that can edit the article


Are you talking about the new unrealeased version? Because the version on your site can't do that.
I don't really need the entire dept to be able to edit. Just one person from the dept. The problem I can't seem to solve is this exactly: I need everyone to be able to view all articles/pages. I need the head of each dept to be able to edit their dept pages, but not all pages.
This to me seems like it would be a very common scenerio. Unfortunately with most CMS systems it seems that editing is either all or nothing. Either you can edit all the pages or none.
If only the author of the page/article could edit the page/article, that would solve my problem. The version of fsections on your site Does Not work this way. Your saying the new unreleased version does this?

OK after doing some testing I have determined that wfsection does not do what I have described. All fsection can control is who can view an article. That is not at all what i'm trying to accomplish.

I want to limit which groups can edit an article. All should able to view.
The idea is to have each department manage their own pages, via a wysiwyg. Everyone should be able to see other departments pages, but they should only have permission to edit their own. I'm kind of surprised it have been so hard to find a solution for this. It seems like it would be a pretty common scenerio .

I installed the version of wfsection/Spaw from your site. I noticed that under "Create New Section" it says "Allow Access to the following groups:" Does this mean access to edit or access to view?

wysiwyg permissions question

I have been trying out various wysiwyg/wrapper style content editors like Tiny Content and Wiwi.
I am creating an intranet and need a way for non-coders to edit their pages. Tiny content fits this requirement nicely, but I need to be able to set permission so that I can give a user or group permission to edit some wsyiwyg pages but not all of them. For example the IT Group should be able to edit the IT Pages, but not the Marketing Pages and the Accounting group should be able to edit the Accounting pages, but not the IT pages.
It seems I can either give permission to use the entire WYSIWYG module and edit all pages created with it, or none. I have not been able to find a way to give permission to edit some of the pages created, but not all.

Does this make sense?
Is there a module out there that uses permissions this way, or is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do with an existing module?
