WEB LOGS (BLOGS)

Securing documents and categories
When you create a document for a blog entry (a Content document for example), you can set security for that document. However, if you specify a content category for that document, then the security settings for the category override the document settings.

Security settings are inherited from a category unless you explicitly prevent a document from inheriting them. To prevent category security settings from taken effect in a document, perform the following steps:

1. Open the Content or Podcast document.

2. Click the Security tab.

3. In the Lock Security field, select Yes.

You can also create a security group, and then add people or ACL groups to it. You can then assign that to a document or category. For example, you can create a security group that includes a particular ACL group, and then assign this to a category or a document. The blog application then automatically secures those documents or categories of documents so that only people in the ACL group can see or read those documents.

To assign a security group to a document, follow these steps:

4. Open the Content or Podcast document.

5. Click the Security tab.

6. In the Security Group field, click the arrow and select a group from the list.

Note You must create security groups to populate this list.
