CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I think from a code perspective its not too hard.

However, ACL's are a bit complex to get your head around and we'll need better documentation before we can release it in the joomla disribution. if you are interested in experimenting with this, you can ping us on IRC

you might want to check the Standalone permissioning code and basically be able to mirror that code

Dave,

Thanks for the link for the participant list...  That gets one item off my list.  Is there an easy way to get 2 versions of that list? I am guessing not...  I am thinking of having a general name list available for registered users... but for users that are "Project Leaders" I want them to get a name and contact info list.  I figure I will just build the second list manually and either tie it into the Joomla permissions or somehow cross reference with the civiCRM user (syncd) and check against the role... Joomla permission will be  the easier of the two.

Thanks again for the info on the participants link...  Do you know of any good reference that shows all the Joomla URLs available from the front-end?

You may be able to set up a CiviCRM Profile with the Advanced Setting of 'Limit Listings to Group' - and have that group be a Smart Group based on a search of registered event participants. Then expose that profile as a searchable directory (or add force=1 and search=0 to the profile URL query string to have it just split out a listing). You can decide what contact fields to exposed when configuring the profile.

The tricky part will be limiting access to this profile (in drupal you could use CiviCRM ACLs to do so - but not in Joomla). Maybe brian's suggestion will work for that.

Joe,
When you say restrict to a Joomla group, do you mean one of the native Joomla groups? e.g. Manager, or Publisher?
JUGA is very URL-string-driven. Which is generally fine for Civi, since it uses pretty consistent strings to generate pages. If you're looking to create new groups besides the standard J! groups, then JUGA gives you that added functionality. I haven't used Roger's though, so I can't compare.
