Sorry for being late with this. I've been a "bit" busy :-)
I am not sure I get your doubt. I'm using #includeTopic to "construct" a
document based on several other ones. Five in the case I am using as an
example. This allow me/you to delegate access control to the parts more than
to the whole doc.
Please, allo me to go back to the example:
http://xepecnet.environmentalchange.net/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/NichitaStanescu
It now has a [edit] link after each paragraph. I am sending you an account
for this wiki. Login and try to edit any of the four parts. You are allowed
to see all four but you can only edit the first one.
Of course the code is really poor! You could show/hide this "buttons" based
on users rights. And I am sure it is possible to tell XWiki to generate then
dynamically for each #includeTopic if you have edit rights on it. I am not
devoted much time to this. Just trying to create a kind of "proof of
concept" to see if this is what we need.
By the way, I think I've not found any attached file to your previous
message. Could you send it directly to me? Thanks!
Hope this helps,
Ricardo

Re: [xwiki-users] special rights
hello again.
i have tried to solve this paragraph rights for the last couple of days. didn't
work :)))
i made a var similar to $isAdvancedUser called $isMyUser and tried to give it
or not access to parts of a page. then i tried to create a macro that i can add
in my page where i want to protect the text. i was probably doing something
very much wrong . and so i am starting again. i have read your idea more times
to be sure i get it:)
i am curious where did u put the #includeTopic('Sandbox.FirstParagraph') or
more importantly where have u explained what does that mean. i see this as a
method. i still don;t know if xwiki knows about methods.
lost :)))
Take care ,
Gabriela Radu :)

Sorry if I have not been able to explain myself. In fact, the problem is
that I am also a bit lost!
Let's try to start again (it will help me with this issue! It is
important for our group as well):
We are speaking about being able to create a "page" where "sections" can
have different assigned rights.
Look at this:
http://xepecnet..environmentalchange.net/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/NichitaStanescu
It seems a "page" including text, but it only includes five "calls" to
other "pages". Look at the code:
#includeTopic('Sandbox.Title')
#includeTopic('Sandbox.FirstParagraph')
#includeTopic('Sandbox.SecondParagraph')
#includeTopic('Sandbox.ThirdParagraph')
#includeTopic('Sandbox.FourthParagraph')
In this case I am using a page (a single XWiki entry in a single space,
in this case, Sandbox.NichitaStanescu) as a "document" metaphor and I
can assign rights to any of the pieces as you do with any other page. I
must not be difficult to add a button close to the starting point of
each paragraph that only appears if the logged user has edit rights on
each "section" and allow him/her to edit it.
Please, let me know if this makes sense for you! It will be help me to
decide if this makes sense for me! Then, we could go ahead completing
this solution.
XWiki is PLENTY of tools/features. The "only" point is to put it in the
correct order :-)
Cheers,
Ricardo

Re: [xwiki-users] special rights
Hello Ricardo,
let me present 2 cases.
1- you are a user and u will access ca page. there you are allowed to edit the
"text" part but not the "links" part. and "text" and "sumbit" are on the same
page
2 - you are superadmin(administrator) and you can edit all: text and links
this is what i want to do :)) i have attached a "photo"...sorry for it...didn;t
have much time:))
so...if i understood correctly from your email..i do not wanna have a special
button placed on the page..."edit this part"
what do you think?

Re: [xwiki-users] special rights
Hi Gabriela, Gabriela Radu wrote: > i was talking about a menu that i create inside...some links actually. and i > don't want the user to be able to edit anything there. I more or less can figure out what you need. Our take was to use a space as metaphor for a what we could call a "document" (a paper, report,...) The WebHome of this space will held the table of contents and each entry in this toc will point to a different XWiki document. You can them manage the access to each of the entries on a per user basis and restrict the capability of doing changes in the WebHome to whom you want. It is of course possible to control who can read a section of a document using #if-#else-#end structures, but users that can read the document can see the used code. And users with edit rights can change it, of course. Another options could be to use any other available XWiki technique to construct the "document", #include for instance, and add some link to edit the sections each user has edit access to. Just an idea... XWiki is plenty of options to do what you are looking for... the point is to formalize it :-( There is a thread somewhere in the lists where some topic related with publishing were discussed. Somebody said that XWiki was not meant to be a complete publishing solution, just a tool to draw a draft. I am not so sure about this. Of course I have not skills enough, yet, to go ahead with such a project, but XWiki seems to me to be a perfect platform to construct the draft that will be enter any other professional publishing environment (just thinking about things like FrameMaker, Arbotek, or any FOSS alternative...).
