Hide areas of content from the public

hiderI've had my eye on Dioscouri for a little while - they're the Joomla services guys that released JUGA, or Joomla User Group Access - an extension which gives you control over registered user groups and the power to define content access per group & category/section.

Well, they've obviously given a lot of thought to this whole idea of ACL and I like the most recent little extension they've released; called Hider .  As you might imagine, it lets you simply hide certain areas of content from public site viewers.

Ultimately, this might get messy if you have a lot of content with embedded tags all over the place to display certain info to certain user types, but for simple uses I could really see it being handy.

Display custom CB fields in content
posted by Jeff Honeyager on 2008-12-21
The alternative is to display user defined CB fields in content.

{cbp cb_myfavwebsite}

Would display the field "cb_myfavwebsite" in content.
