CBSubs usecase question was created by liaskas
Hello

Please help us find a solution to the following situation.

3 usergroups...

1. public
2. Registered
3. Banned

We have a URL (internal) that must be visible only to registered usergroup. If someone has been assigned to Banned usergroup, he must pay a subscription plan to be able to visit this URL.

We create a plan that is visible only to banned usergoup and set "URL parts (non-SEFed)" under integrations/Extensions. So far, so good but... the plan controls access to the certain URL for Registered usergoup too and we do not want this.

When user that has "Banned" usergoup assigned tries to go to URL, he sees the plan info to pay. This is correct.

When user that has "Registered" usergoup assigned tries to go to URL, he sees the following...

Message
Access to this location not allowed without subscription

You are not authorized to view this page!


We need to allow Registered usergoup users to visit the restricted by the plan URL!

Is there such a possibility?

Thank you

ACL for plans just determines access to the plan. It does not prevent the plan from protecting the content it's assigned to protect. To have what you're wanting you'll need a plan for the other users that gives them access to that content as well, which could simply be a free lifetime plan.

One workaround, if you don't intended to protect content against Registered users using CBSubs Content, is to exclude Registered from CBSubs Content integration. To do this navigate to CBSubs > Settings > Integrations > Content/Extensions and add Registered to "No access restriction for Groups".
