 * Incredible! That plug-in you made did the trick! Not only that, but it worked
   flawlessly.
 * Looking over the code, I don’t I see anything to exclude pages, ect. but I assume
   it’s not supposed to be there. Those functions would incredibly useful to me,
   as they would do EXACTLY what I’m looking for.
 * If it wouldn’t be too much to ask, could you play some more tomorrow or sometime
   soon?
 * I can’t really thank you enough for doing this for me. Both of you, Moshu and
   Kafkaesqui.

 * Moshu:
 * Oops. Sorry about that. I feel like I’ve been some kind of annoyance now, y’know
   asking for help and all. (oh jeez, that sounded like an insult… it’s not)
 * Anyway, I figured out part of the solution I think.
 * In file “edit-page-form.php”, starting around line 67 the describer for the “
   Parent Page” drop down menu code is listed there and it looks like…
 * <fieldset id=”pageparent” class=”dbx-box”>
    <h3 class=”dbx-handle”><?php _e(‘
   Page Parent’) ?></h3> <div class=”dbx-content”><select name=”parent_id”> <option
   value=’0′><?php _e(‘Main Page (no parent)’); ?></option> <?php parent_dropdown(
   $post->post_parent); ?> </select> </div> </fieldset>
 * The key line here is:
 * <option value=’0′><?php _e(‘Main Page (no parent)’);
 * If you just change the option value to whatever page you want the example:
 * If I wanted the page whose location is “[http://website/wp/?page_id=666&#8221](http://website/wp/?page_id=666&#8221);
   you would change that line to read
 * <option value=’666′><?php _e(‘The Satan Page!’);
 * That last page is just the text that the drop down box lists as default.
 * Now, this remove the ability to make new pages that have no parents. This isn’t
   a problem in my case, I have a copy of the original code saved so I can just 
   upload it elsewhere, password protect that page, and just go to whenever I want
   to make a parent-less page. Not something I really need to do and it’s worth 
   it for this quick fix.
 * If you have a better solution please list it here, not just for me but also for
   anyone else who has a similar need. I’ll update this if I think it’s needed.

   working on it). Please help?

 * Ok, I have another idea that would work almost as well. Is there a way that I
   can edit what pages appear in the drop down box on the right (when someone goes
   to publish a page), this would be the box where you select a parent.
 * While that wouldn’t totally eliminate the possibility to post it the wrong place
   it would severely lessen the chances of someone doing it on accident.

 * I actually have that plugin installed from the last time you helped me (thanks
   again). It prevents editing of others pages but it does not restrict where the
   user can place the pages. Perhaps I need to configure it somehow?
 * Red Alt seems to be having problems and I can’t find a list of plugins or documentation
   for this plugin.

 * Alright, thanks for the help everyone. That plugin does the trick.
 * Note for people having the same problem:
    The page restriction plugin ads a new
   permission to all member roles, including Administrator. That means you need 
   to go turn that permission on for any roles you want to be able to edit others
   pages.

 * Oh jeez. Thanks Moshu, I uploaded the file 3 different places but never activated
   the plugin. (I thought it was an addon for Role Manager). Sure enough, I goto
   the plugin page and there’s 3 identicle plugins.

   plugin folder, but I can’t seem to find any affect.

 * Those permissions are close to what I need but I don’t want those users to be
   able to do the following:
 * Not allowed to:
    Write Posts (posts as in the front page posts, not pages) Edit
   Pages not created by them
 * Allowed to:
    Create Pages Edit their own pages

 * Egh. I seriously cannot tell which one of these (refer to URL to CSS sheet) is
   for the right sidebar. I’ve never really done anything with CSS and this is from
   a theme someone made.
 * It does have labels and notes in it tho. Could someone point me in the right 
   direction here?

 * Thank Alys. I’ll look into setting up a seperate IE.CSS file that IE could use
   while all the other browsers could use the normal one, which is going to be fun
   I’m sure.
 * In the mean time, if someone else has a solution please post it here. I’ll also
   be back after I solve my issue and post how to do it so someone else who has 
   the problem can get some anwsers. : /
