It doesn't seem like SmartSection has a per-item capability, where only certain articles within a category can be viewable by Anonymous ... unless there's something I'm missing.

Hello ...

I am looking to develop a 'family' site, with the following criteria:

- have blogs, forums, galleries, news, etc.
- a select handful of pple can actually post things (the 'main family')
- their friends can sign up to view content
- anonymous people can view certain content.

So, what I require is essentially 3 levels of users:
- family
- friends
- anonymous

This is on a per content basis ... for example: if I have a "kids story" section, then only family can see this.
However, I also want a per item/node restriction ... so if a family members posts something, they can choose whether only 'family' can see it, 'friends' , or everyone ('anonymous') ... naturally if you chose 'friends', then 'family' could see it ... so this would work on a per category, or per specific item.

So Family Member #1 would have a section with all their posts & photos, and it's separate from Family Member #2 ....
However, it's all possible to see an 'overall family' layout ... where I can go into blogs, and see all of the family members' blogs .... or a conglomerate photo gallery, with everyone's pics ...

can XOOPS do this?? if so .. how??
