Multiple author and reviewer roles in Zope CMF
I would like to apply Zope CMF to our organization which is made up of numerous departments. Each department has one or more managers (reviewers) and content providers. Also, some managers cross departments, as well as content providers. How can I create several Zope CMF roles (reviewer and author) for each department so that reviewers for that department will only see content created by authors in that department?

Don't. Create only one role for Reviewer, another for Author and so on. In your user folder, don't give any of these roles to your users. Go to the Security tab of the folder where you want to grant, say, user Fred, role Reviewer, click on "local roles", and make such a change. Local Roles rule and should have more visible placement in the Security tab... Hmm, maybe I should file that as a Feature Request bug. -- Ideas don't stay in some minds very long because they don't like solitary confinement.

I constantly forget that it exists :) While we're on the subject - are local roles acquired in subfolders?

Yes, to the point that globals roles are actually redundant, but serve as an optimisation of a local role at the same level as your userfolder. a. -- Adrian van den Dries adriand@flow.com.au Development team www.dev.flow.com.au FLOW Communications Pty. Ltd. www.flow.com.au
