CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I’m creating a forum community which has a lot of extra requirements. I’m interested in using civicrm-2.1.alpha4-joomla for this project.


I’m planning to design a website which require the following functionality:

1.Events:
Information / announcements
Registration (/cancellation?) for some of these

2.Membership:
Registration
Online update of membership database
Login / get forgotten password (using email as login id).

3.Mailing list management: join & remove
4.Document download area
5.Feedback to President or organisation
6.Surveys
7.Datafeed on information update
8.Live or recorded webcast of technical meeting
9.Simple financial accounts on server (specs tba)
10.Jobs / consultants listing
11.Archive area
12.Ads..

I was just wondering if I can achieve this with civicrm. Also there is another function which is essential to this:
I’d like to have different levels of user memberships (3+ types of users) where each different type of user can access/see different links/events/content on the site.

Is all of this possible with civicrm?

Kind Regards, Kevin

I’d like to have different levels of user memberships (3+ types of users) where each different type of user can access/see different links/events/content on the site.

This will be you biggest snag, whichever CMS you choose, because CiviEvent doesn't have any kind of access control. Either an event is public, or it's not. There is no built-in way of restricting of CiviEvents based on Membership/Role/Permission that I am aware of.

whoops... 

it happens from time to time...

Is this a more recent feature? Cause I swear I looked into it around 1.7 / 1.8 era & I don't remember hearing that it was added.
