a way to allow users to view only their own articles

Asked by Comunicante 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

Hi. Do you know if there is a way to allow users to view only their own articles that they have submit to the site from frontend, so they can edit or delete them in the future? I would like to associate this list of articles with a menu item, within a user menu.
Thank you...

Hi,

If we talk about Articles (Joomla 4.x Core) - it's possible and is assigned with Article Categories, User Groups, and ACL. But becuase this is Joomla Question is beyond JoomShaper support, and request longer (text or video) guide to explain all steps.
In net you should be able to find tips from J3 - they are still current.


In some cases very useful would be to use extra ACL Manager extension.

Thanks, Paul, for your reply. I bought a third party extension, but it conflicts with the template...

Great component, but useful if I want to log users into the backend.
