I have a parent folder with a set of subfolders A-L.
I want to give users access to different subfolders.
The only way to set this up is rather clumsy (described below).
QUESTION: Is this the correct and intended way to do this?
1/ i created a PARENTrole that gives access to the parent folder and denies access to the subfolders with website ACLs
read only-selected and subpages-/parent
deny access-selected and subpages- /parent/A
deny access-selected and subpages- /parent/B
....
deny access-selected and subpages- /parent/L
2/ I created a Arole role for users with access to subfolder A (and one for B...L)
read only-selected and subpages-/parent/A
3/ I assigned the user with access to A, PARENTrole and Arole (and did the same for users on other subfolders)
==========================================================
Whenever I add another subfolder, (e.g. M) I
1/ add a deny /parent/M to the PARENTrole
2/ create an Mrole
==========================================================
Another issue: whenever i rename a URL on the site, associated ACL's become stale (is this a bug?)
