== Description == |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Groups is designed as an efficient, powerful and flexible solution for group-oriented membership and content access control. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
It provides group-based user membership management, group-based capabilities and access control for content, built on solid principles. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Groups is light-weight and offers an easy user interface, while it acts as a framework and integrates standard WordPress capabilities and application-specific capabilities along with an extensive API. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Enhanced functionality is available via official [extensions](http://www.itthinx.com/plugins/groups/) for Groups. |

| 47 |
|
| 48 |
- Built-in access control that allows to restrict access to posts, pages and custom content types to specific groups and users only |
| 49 |
- control access to content by groups: shortcodes allow to control who can access content on posts, show parts to members of certain groups or to those who are not members |
| 50 |
Shortcodes: [groups_member], [groups_non_member] |
| 51 |
- control access to content by capabilities: show (or do not show) content to users who have certain capabilities |
| 52 |

|
| 54 |
#### Easy user interface #### |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |

| 57 |
- provides an intuitive Groups menu |
| 58 |
- conceptually clean views showing the essentials |
| 59 |
- quick filters |
| 60 |

| 61 |
|
| 62 |

| 67 |
- cleans up after testing with a "delete all plugin data" option |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
#### Access Control #### |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
Access to posts and pages can be restricted by capability. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
Any capability can be used to restrict access, including new capabilities. |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
If access to a post is restricted, only users who belong to a group with that |
| 76 |
capability may access the post. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
Groups defines the groups_read_post capability by default, which can be |
| 79 |
used to restrict access to certain posts or pages to groups |
| 80 |
with that capability only. Any other capability (including new ones) can be |
| 81 |
used to limit access as well. |
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
#### Framework #### |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
- Solid and sound data-model with a complete API that allows developers to create group-oriented web applications and plugins |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
#### Multisite #### |
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
- All features are supported independently for each blog in multisite installations |
| 90 |

|
| 132 |
Example: Advanced and Premium members |

1. Go to *Groups > Capabilities* and define two new capabilities, let's call them *advanced* and *premium*. |
| 135 |

| 136 |
3. Assign the *advanced* capability to the *Advanced Members* group and the *premium* capability to the *Premium Members* group. |
| 137 |
4. Go to *Groups > Options* and tick the checkboxes for *advanced* and *premium* under _Access restrictions_ and hit the *Save* button at the end of the page. |
| 138 |
5. Now create an example post that only members of the *Advanced Members* group should be able to see and tick the *advanced* checkbox under _Access restrictions_. |
| 139 |
6. Create another post for *Premium Members* and tick the *premium* checkbox for that post. |
| 140 |

The Groups plugin provides an extensive framework to handle memberships, group-based capabilities and access control. |
| 165 |
|
| 166 |
The API documentation is available here: [Groups API](http://api.itthinx.com/groups). |
| 167 |
|

1. Groups - this is where you add and remove groups and assign capabilities to groups. |
| 175 |
2. Capabilities - here you get an overview of the capabilities that are defined and you can add and remove capabilities as well. |
| 176 |
3. Users - group membership is managed from the standard Users admin view. |
| 177 |
4. Access restrictions meta box - on pages and posts (or custom content types) you can restrict access to users who are part of a group with capabilities. |
| 178 |
5. Usage of the [groups_member] and [groups_non_member] shortcodes to limit visibility of content to users who are members of a group or users who are not members of a group. Multiple comma-separated groups can be specified. |
| 179 |
6. Usage of the [groups_can] and [groups_can_not] shortcodes. Limits visibility of enclosed content to those users who have the capability or those who do not. Multiple capabilities can be given. |
