Tony Wood	Tuesday 26 September 2006 1:40:43 pm Hi Jens, First, you made the right choice in looking at eZ. For your issue. The first thing we do in these types of sites is to create folder locations for each country. You can then set the index and default nodes for each siteaccess to the top folder for each location. The issue with security rights, that should be a case of adding additional locations for content. You can then use subtree security in the roles and permissions to handle the access. Does this answer your question? Tony Tony Wood : twitter.com/tonywood Vision with Technology Experts in eZ Publish consulting & development Power to the Editor!

Jens Tiedemann	Wednesday 27 September 2006 11:05:07 am Thanks Tony - We played around following your lead today, and have now set up the following folder structure: Main International Products Partners Support US Products (add location from International) Partners (add location from International) Support (add location from International) Local US XX...... (more country folders) Then defined the siteaccess folders and site.ini.append.php in siteaccess folders - and updated the override site.ini.append.php to include the new siteaccess's. A couple of questions remain though: 1. How do we point the country siteaccess's to the country folders. Right now, you always end up in the "Main" folder going in through the country siteaccess's (ex: xxx/us)? So how/where do you set the index/default node for a siteaccess (right now we're running on localhost - so no external url resolution) 2. We can add the international subfolders to the country main folders by using ”add location”. But how do we set priorities in the country folders? (the priorities button is not enabled in the sub items view)? 3. How do we hide the (empty) Main node, so users can't go there (for example by using the breadcrums)? It looks promising - but we need to fix those issues to move on. So any help appreciated! Thanks Jens
Jens Tiedemann	Wednesday 27 September 2006 11:07:09 am structure did not format correctly above... it's not flat, but as follows: Main -----International ----------Products ----------Partners ----------Support -----US ----------Products (add location from International) ----------Partners (add location from International) ----------Support (add location from International) ----------Local US -----XX...... (more country folders)

We can add the international subfolders to the country main folders by using �add location�. But how do we set priorities in the country folders? (the priorities button is not enabled in the sub items view)? The priorites should be set. You can set prioirty on any folder or article as long as it is a container. 3. How do we hide the (empty) Main node, so users can't go there (for example by using the breadcrums)? See http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_8/reference/configuration_files/site_ini/sitesettings/indexpage for the index page. You can ensure only the pages you want are seen.
