Setup Editor role for a site
If you want to run several sites on your magnolia instance you want to give them rights so that they can only see their own content:
Suppose you have a strucure like this
What is to be done:
1. Create an editor role with the necessary rights in the config repository.
Read only | Selected and sub nodes | /modules/adminInterface/config/menu/website
Read only | Selected and sub nodes | /modules/templating/templates
and grant access to / (and not sub pages) in the website acl. You can take the pre-installed editor role
Read only | Selected and sub nodes | /$
For Magnolia versions < 3.1 add:
Read only | Selected and sub nodes | /tmp/fckeditor
This is necessary if your users are going to upload images through the editor in order to workaround an ACL issue (see MAGNOLIA-1162).
2. Create roles for each site with the following right (example /site1):
Read/Write | Selected and sub nodes | /site1
3. Give the editor both the rules of an editor and of the according site-role
The tricky part is the $ in the acl which works because the pattern matching uses regular expressions.
