Question: How can I ensure that only a limited group of users can view a publication?
Answer: Open the Portal as Administrator and click on the dashboard button:
Then click on the Manage Website button:
Go to the "Groups" tab and click New
Enter a desired group name under 'Name' and a corresponding description under description; then click Update
Go to the Users tab and add the desired users to the new group by clicking Edit and adding the desired group to groups.
Then click on Update and the user is added to the relevant group::
To add multiple users to a group at once; select the people to be added to a group and click Edit
Under Groups; select the desired group and click Update
The following screen appears; select what you would like to update (in this example Update Groups) and click Select::
All selected persons have now been added to a group at once.
Go to the Versions tab select the website that this group is allowed to see and click Edit; add the group and click Update:
Select the General tab and check "Use Groups"
Click Yes
Now the groups are active on the Portal.
PS: Versions to which no group has been assigned are not visible to anyone in the Portal; after a change of rights refresh the website (CTRL + F5) to see if the change has been implemented
With a new publication; the group rights set on any previous version are automatically inherited.
