Solution for Intranet?

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Dear developper

I read the description to your plugin and have two questions that are not clear for me now. I like to use this addon for an intranet site where no «guest» users are around.

1) can i use this addon for publishing pages - e.g. to a certain group-permission
2) can i control blocks with this addon or only pages?

Thanks for your feedback!
best regards, Roland

Hi Roland,

the add-on controls versions of pages. You can schedule at which time a version of a page is actual live / visible. This control is not user or user group specific but applies for all users.

BUT

If you want to control entire pages or only certain blocks, you can set viewing permissions for users or user groups. You don't need any add-on for this but I think you have to enable advanced permissions.

Cheers

Hi Roland,

I forgot to mention that you can define users and user groups for which the scheduling of versions is ignored. This is probably what you ment.
The definition is not page or version specific but applies for all pages in general. So, you can not target certain versions or changes with this.

Cheers

Hi Daniel

Thanks for your answers! It helps me to understand.
We are using advanced permissions (with a lot of users an they are connected to active directory as well).

I think that your addon will met my needs. Will test it!
One last question - if you controll versions, can you cover this use case: Control over first published date of a site? (version 0 to version 1)?

Thanks for clearing that.
best regards from Switzerland

Hi Roland,

not quite sure what you mean. Without the add-on you would make changes to a page and by doing so, you create a new version for the page. If you hit publish, the changes go live.

With the add-on you can define that the changes should go live, let's say, in a week. So, if you hit publish, the changes wouldn't go live right a way but in a week at the date and time you defined.

If you are talking about the first initial release of a page, which you would if your version 0 isn't online but your version 1 will be, you have to use the page viewing permission! If the add-on doesn't find a approved/published version with a timeframe which fits the current time, it shows the last/oldest approved version which would be version 1.

Is this what you mean?

Yes! That's what i mean.
Concrete5 has no easy controll if a site should be active or note (combined with a timeframe).

As I sad, if you want control over the visibility of an entire page, use the viewing permissions of the page. There you can set permissions for users and user groups and even schedule them. No need for the add-on.

The add-on is good for scheduling versions of pages which are visible.
