add role and resource

I have a question about your MyACL class. How can I add a new role and resource and then a sub resource? For example if I have a user testuser and the role is users and the user have access to the module news action view. But don't have access to news edit or add. How can I ad this to the database?

Hi,

that's what you use the privileges for. Are you familiar with the way Zend Framework works? It is described in detail here: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.acl.html

The bottom line is:
Your news module/script/whatever needs to check the privileges View, Add and Edit, depending on what the user is trying to do. If you want someone to only be able to view, you'd need to insert the following data into the access table:
Role: $username
Resource: News
Privilege: View
Allow: True

For some other user to be able to do everything:
Role: $someOtherUser
Resource: News
Privilege: NULL
Allow: True

That should work fine :)

Hth,
Michael
