Hi, there,

I need to have two types of roles. One that gets to see everything, and one that sees only a part of the content.

How do you restrict/assign content to certain roles?

Thanks very much,

- Paul

use permissions in the administration menu (under people). You can make new roles there.

In general terms you need a module that provides access control for viewing nodes. The content access module can provide control per content type and even per node. They are also taxonomy based solutions and others.

Thanks.

If I was going to have, say, 4 levels of content, with each higher level inheriting the content from the level under it, which one would you recommend?

Thanks a lot, one more time,

Any more recommendations to modules that restrict content by roles?

I'm looking to use aMember membership software to handle the payment and management, and this is a little more thank I know how to do right now, so any advice on setting up the Drupal side of it would be appreciated.

Thank you all so much for your time. :-)

You can also use one of the ecommerce packages for Drupal to "sell" memberships. I don't think any module exists for "inheriting" permissions.

Also see Overview of Node Access modules but note that page may be outdated. But it has references to several modules.
