Hi, I'm trying here to build a hierarcy in my members so that I can manage page access depending on the member level.I've tried doing that with the member groups but it is not enough as I need in fact a two dimensional hierarchy. The site is an extranet for the company as well as our franchise shop employees. We have 5 different brands in our franchise. These 5 I have created as member groups and already allow me to filter page access according to the brand the shop belongs to. Now I need to implement a shop hierarchy as follow (franchise member - Shop Director - Shop Employee).How can I build that 2nd member dimension in Umbraco (ideally V6) so that I can filtered the page according to both the brand and the shop level ? Some pages for instance would only be allowed to franchise A members and thus denied to all director and employee levels.Thank you for your help
Hi, did you find a solution for this? I'm in a similar situation. For now, I think I can get away by creating several member groups in a flat structure, like in your case it'd be
Franchise A member
Franchise A Shop Director
Franchise A Shop Employee
Franchise B member
...
and a member can belong to more than one group: a director would be belong to Franchise A member and Franchise A Shop Director. A member could even be Shop Director of several Franchises.
Would that work for you? Please let me know if you found a better solution.
