Levels of Permissions

Assuming you have identified your role strategy and have listed your roles, now you need to define what it is the roles can do. Much of this process is already defined by the strategy you have chosen. But there can be degrees or levels of permission. For instance, if an authenticated user can create content, can they also edit the content? Don't laugh, this may seem an obvious answer of yes but not always.

Thank you for your interest. I apologize for any inconvenience this limited access causes. This online guide is now a book called Drupal: The Guide to Planning and Building Websites. The content of the guide is being updated, expanded, and edited. It will include tips for D6 and D7. I hope you will find it useful.
