Issue/Request: 

Hello,

We would like to add a handbook that is only accessible to those with CAS IDs in our website (our students and faculty).  All other CAS users should not have access.  How do we go about setting this up?

Kind thanks,
Heather Voorhees

Hello Heather,

You can restrict the Content Type by role. That means that you’d have to use the Content Access Module and create a role for all those that should be able to see the content. Maybe an “Internal” role.

Thank you, Josue - 

When using the tutorial, http://yalesites.yale.edu/module-tutorials/content-access, I wasn’t able to see the ‘Access Control Tab’ in the content type settings for basic pages in our site (it goes straight from ‘edit’ to ‘manage fields’.  

Are there office hours where I could meet with someone to iron this out?

Issue was resolved via office hours. User will restrict content via ORGSync
