[Slashcode-general] Slashboxes belonging to user

[Micah Y. <yo...@ho...>]

I need to give regular users the ability to edit Slashboxes -- one or more of 
them, with privileges granted by the administrator.  I'm about to write code 
to handle that, but I thought I'd ask if it has already been done.

Thanks

The best way to do this is to introduce and ACL system. I have sent a
patch to slashcode 2.0.0 to include ACL functions and some minor
modifications in getUser and setUser so when a user enter in the system,
it receives her ACLs. You can take it from Sourceforge.

I am working now in the translation to Plugins of some functionality
that shows how to use this ACLs. We have introduced it in our system
because we let our users to have their own section and put there news
and edit a slashbox which appears there.

When I have all the plugins (2 o 3 days max) I will ask in the list the
best place to put them (¿sourceforge patchs?).

Bye bye

That looks good, but now I'm thinking along the lines of hacking up a quick 
PHP page or two to let authorized users (I'd give them a username/password 
separate from Slash) edit their box(es) there.  I'd like to avoid modifying 
or patching Slash too much -- that would make it a pain to upgrade.

Sure, but the plugin architecture helps a lot in introducing changes in
slashcode in an independent way. I will try to put the ACL system as an
independant plugin.
