Geeklog Forums

I would like to restrict access to my entire Geeklog installation to registered members in a specific group. In addition, I would like a "request access" link on the login page. How can I do this?

Thanks!

Set the permissions on all Geeklog objects (stories, topics, blocks, etc.) such that anonymous users can't see them - with the exception of the User Functions block. Set $_CONF['loginrequired'] = 1 (or equivalent in the Configuration admin panel in 1.5.0). Also disable new user registration.

Then you could either post a story, visible for anonymous users, explaining how to get a password, or use a static page as a centerblock.

Ah, that would work. Thanks!

Is there a way to bulk update the permissions on, say, 150 stories?

That would hide all stories from anonymous users.

Yes it would. Thanks!
