    Hi all.
    I'm facing a problematic question. Someone ask me how we can handle finely permission under a WordPress 2.7 blog. To be more precise, we face a problem when trying to answer to theses points :

      - Is there a way to define an Editor by category ?
      - Can we assign contributor uniquely to a category ?
      - Can we limit deletion of post and page only to admin (we leave to Editor the possibility to hide article instead of delete them) ?

    I've look to user level, rights and permissions but I must admit that I cannot reply easily to this kind of question !

    Category Access allows you to limit, by user, what categories the person sees when editing posts. This applies to just Authors and Subscribers which makes sense. Can also control what categories are not displayed on the blog but within limits (will hide the_content and the_title, but not the_time,the_date, the_category) Can also restrict what categories guests (not logged in) see on blog.

    I suppose you will need to look at the Role Manager plugin. See Resource section of Roles and Capabilities
