Protected Content

It is possible to make certain contents only available for special users that need to login.

If the logged in user belongs to the right group, then special content becomes visible.

• for each data-entry you can define which groups shall be able to see this content
• the protected data is completely invisble to non-authorized users
• the search will not slowdown when using the protected-documents-feature

The last point requires that the number of protected documents stays limited and must not exceed a number of 5-10% of total documents. Raising the amount of memory on the servermachine will increase this percentage.

For template-programmer the protected content is 100% transparent. Each data-retrieving method like get_data() or search1() will respect the protected content and only return content visible to the current user.
