Content Viewers
2 May 2009 at 4:41am
Hey all,
Quick question. I was wondering if there is a way of setting "Viewing privileges" in the security section?
Basically I want some users to be able to view the draft (staging) version of the site, without being able to access CMS functionality.
I am using version 2.3.1.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Mo

Hi there
Just wondering if anyone knows the answer to Mo's question?
I also need to set up "view only" access to the draft site.
I looked in the "Creating a security group" section of the "User help" manual, and it says:
The security settings are available on the "Access" tab in the "Users in this Group" pane.
However, I don't have an "Access" tab...
Thanks in advance!
Lisa

This is controlled by ContentController->init(), specifically:
// Draft/Archive security check - only CMS users should be able to look at stage/archived content
if($this->URLSegment != 'Security' && !Session::get('unsecuredDraftSite') && (Versioned::current_archived_date() || (Versioned::current_stage() && Versioned::current_stage() != 'Live'))) {
if(!Permission::check('CMS_ACCESS_CMSMain')) {
$link = $this->Link();
$message = _t("ContentController.DRAFT_SITE_ACCESS_RESTRICTION", 'You must log in with your CMS password in order to view the draft or archived content. <a href="%s">Click here to go back to the published site.</a>');
return Security::permissionFailure($this, sprintf($message, "$link?stage=Live"));
}
}I've added a new SiteTree->canViewStage() method instead to wrap around this aspect: http://open.silverstripe.org/changeset/94253
You should be able to overload it to enforce different permission checks in your Page.php -

Thanks for responding Ingo! I'm a bit scared to go into the php code... so is it just a matter of making the changes in the code as indicated in your link?

Hey Lisa, theoretically yes, all you should need are these code changes. But if you're not very proficient in PHP, you might not be able to deal with upgrades or any side effects as easily, hence I'd recommend you wait until this feature makes it into a release. This might be 2.4, but could also be 2.5, which is a wee while away.
