Need help on creating left menu with link to wiki pages having user/group specific access
Tikiwiki has too many useful features and it is taking some time for me to understand how we can use them for specific purposes. I am using Tikiwiki version 14.2 which I downloaded in January 2016.
My Scenario:
There are several departments. Each department needs to be assigned to a user group, and each group is assigned to a category.
I need to create the left menu so that
- each group user will be able to see the list of pages in the left menu, for which they have access to
- there may be common categories across groups
- if a user creates a wiki page, that needs to be automatically reflected in the left menu
- the options in the left menu need to be displayed based on the hierarchy, I think at present upto 2 levels are possible with Bootstrap menu, and any levels with Superfish.
I tried with Structures, but they need to be created for each page and then added to a hierarchy, and use the structure id in the module Menu.
Also tried with the Categories module, then creating pages with the same name as the categories. - This required me to create page for each category and category for each page, for a module accessible for a group.
Neither of the above methods work automatically when a new page is created by a group user.
Is there any way we can get the new page created by user into the left menu automatically?
If it is not possible with the existing features, is there any way around (like creating custom modules)?
Please suggest.
Best regards,
Hari CL
