Thanks, Jan and Sebastian,

 

dispatching a second workflow for a specific path and with another group
did the trick. 

 

Although it feels a bit strange that publishers and editors are not
separated by access rules but only by the visibility of the Inbox.
Wouldn't it be able to craft a Request that activates changes without
seeing it in the Inbox?

 

Best Regards,

 

Frank

In order to be able to activate a content, user needs to have a write
permission on the content. So by setting permissions for the editors you
can control what content they are able to edit (and activate).

 

The type of items that publishers see in the inbox is controlled by the
workflow itself to which group of users is given item dispatched. As
Sebastian already pointed out in his answer, you can do so either via
modifying existing workflow and dispatch to different group in case
content belong to the subtree that requires special handling or you can
have completely separate workflow for given subtree.

 

Third option you have is to modify the command chain and write your own
dispatcher command that can have any sort of custom logic you can
imagine for deciding which workflow to invoke.

 

Alternatively you can extend WebsiteTreeConfiguration class and
completely customize activation menu entry.

 

HTH,

Jan

Hi list,

 

we have a group of users that should only be able to publish a subtree
of the whole website.

 

Is this achieved by changing the workflow definition for activation or
can this be achieved by adding roles in the security configuration.

 

I couldn't find the permissions that allow activation. I think the
groups editors and publishers created by the workflow module are only
concerned about the inbox.

 

Not to forget ...

The default editor and publisher groups (and roles assigned to them)
control indeed look of AdminCentral for the their members and give write
access to the editors and read only access to the publishers for the
website content.





 

Best regards,

 

Frank
