Category security

The Category Security page allows you to specify exactly which users and which user groups have permission to access a particular category or photo album. You can also control the level of users' access, by allowing them to view only, or view and post to a particular category or photo album.

Category Users

This section allows you to control users' access to a category or photo album on an individual basis, and displays a list of those users you have enabled for that category. The list contains the following information:

•	Username: the internal system name of the enabled user.

•	Name: the name of the enabled user.

•	Permissions: the user's level of access for the category.

•	Category: the category level at which the user has been granted access. Click the link in this column to go to the View Content page for the category.

•	Delete: if it is possible to delete a user's access to the category, a checkbox appears here. Note that you can only delete a user's access from the category in which it was granted.

To grant a specific user access to a category or photo album:

1.	From the Post Manager tab, select a category from the Category Tree or from the drop-down list at the top of the page. (If you select from the list, click the Display button.)

2.	Click the Category Security link at the top of the page. The Category Security page opens.

3.	Type the username in the User field.

4.	Select the level of access from the Permissions drop-down list, then click the Enable User button.

To delete a user's access to a category or photo album:

3.	Click the Delete checkbox for the applicable user(s).
