Is there a way to allow certain people to edit certain sections of a site?  Rather than allowing administrators to edit the whole site?

Using www.dotnetnuke.com as an example, if someone is admin'ing the "Resources" section of the site and wants to add a page, add/delete a module to the page, etc under resources.... they should be able to do that. 

Then, someone different can admin the "news" section of the page.

 

Is this possible?

Create a role for each 'admin' role and then add users to the role you want them to be in.  In the page settings give the new role that is to have admin rights the ability to edit the page.

eg create new Resources_Editor and News_Editor roles. Then go to the main resources page and give the Resources_Editor role edit permissions for the page, if you already have some pages under this top page copy the permissions to decendents.  Do the same for the main (top) news page.

Then choose your users that can edit the resources pages and add them to the Resources_Editor role. Same for those users who will be editing the News pages.
