Multi user/ permissions

[mikeh]

Custom Permissions is on the top of my list for my Multi User plugin.
I have a lot of work right now so I cannot give an estimate of when this will be added.
However, if you would like to make any contributions to the plugin or give me a starting point/advice for adding this functionality, It would be appreciated. You will find the plugin consists of basic coding with tons of comments.

In relation to your comment about access to blocked pages if javascript is disabled;
If a page is blocked for a particular user, css and javascript is used to hide the menu items. However, if for some reason the menu items still displayed or if a user tried to type the URL to a blocked page directly, the plugin kills the script and notifies the user they are not allowed access to that particular page.

this is wonderfull news. I will look into this, just have to finish something for somebody and when I have time will come back to this, was just a thought really. I understand the clientside via javascript controlling what gets show and now is more flexible as it does not require or depend on so many GS changes as it can do its own. Main reason I thought of GS controlling all creation of navigation and sidebars via central functions that fill global aray it means your system admin area can have easy access to this. but of course if your system is active in the admin area it can already get access to all these buttons and sections via javascript. this might not need the change. thanks for your comment and feedback.

core filters would be great though. It could really expand the capabilities of the plugin.
