XOOPS Help Area
XOOPS ( www.xoops.org ) is a very popular portal system.
We are currently working on a XOOPS help area with useful information. It is under construction, but we always let Surpassers in on the goods. :love3: http://surpasshosting.com/?x=xoops |

Can I create groups that have the ability to administer "sections" of the xoops site? I mean, if I add a section, can I then make it viewable by all but editable by a certain group? John

Yes, you can do that. Go into the System Admin area, and go to "Groups".
There you can set the access permissions for each block for each group. By default, xoops comes with 3 predefined groups: Anonymous Users, Registered Users, and Webmasters. At the bottom of the page however, there is a button to "Create New Group". Create whatever groups you want. Then, while giving everyone block and module access rights, enable module admin rights only for the group(s) that you want to have it. That should do it. Any questions? Either post them here, drop me an email, or pm me.  John

Just had another thought... how could I incorporate an RSS feed into the news module?

Do you mean put groups in groups? Don't think that's possible, but I could be wrong. I believe people can be in more than 1 group though (haven't needed to do that yet, but will be soon).
As for RSS feeds, the headline module does that. There is also a module called MyHeadlines, one called FreeContent 3.0 (credits to the author all over the place), and I believe (danger - trying to use my memory) a Lykos module that'll do RSS. I'll look into it and let you know for sure. John
