User permissions on subspaces

Hi all,
Im trying to configure some personal spaces with no permision for other users. But I want to give permissions on some subspaces to some users, and I can't if i don't give persimissions on the spaces-path to the subspace. Is it possible to give permissions on a subspace and then the path to this space have just the necessary permissions to reach this subspace?

Thanx

andy

Hi

It is not possible to do this at the moment.
You could change the implementation to support this.

The UI assumes you can navigate.

Setting the permission on a child should not fix permissions anywhere else. This would not happen on windows or unix file systems for example.

You could "allow" on the top folder and then set permissions not to inherit on all the sub folders you want to hide. At some point we will expose the underlying deny support but there has not been much demand here.

The long term road map includes:

Set permissions from a specified nodeSplit inherited permissions from set permissions (so read on a folder does not always apply to the children)

Regards

Andy
