Hi I'm trying to access the 'Users can have their own private outline, where they alone can add nodes.' feature but I can't seem to find the option.

I'm trying to allow users to write their own book where only they can add child pages.

I've looked at
example.com/admin/settings/outline and example.com/admin/content/book/settings for the option to allow a user to only outline their own created book.

Cheers

There is no such option per se. You need to create an outline, and configure it so that only one user can add pages to it.

Thanks for clarifying that.

The site's for a friend and fellow aspiring writers and I was looking for an automated way for every new book page (or in this case novel page as I've completely duplicated the book module into a novel module and edited the outline module to pick up on the changes) to be a new book by default and every new book can be outlined only by its original author (or whichever user the original author decides to share the novel with.)

@SteveJB - you may also want to look at the Book Manager project if you haven't already seen it.

Thanks for the link! Google and Drupal searches didn't end up with that link as a result.

Looks like just what I need.
