Is there a module that helps with the utilization of role groups? I do not need a lot of control. But, it would be nice to be able to control modules by role groups instead of selecting multiple roles to access the same module feature.

For example : Talent = models, dancers, DJs, Actors, etc. . I may have as many as 20-30 talent types! This could make module implimentation very tedious. If I could just select "Talent" and it represents all 30...well you can see how handy a module or feature that would be.

Hey Mamlin,  just wanted to say that this is probably the most complete and well thought out answer to a question that I've seen to an internet discussion post in years......and I read a lot of discussion forums.

Well done and please keep sharing your knowledge of DNN with us.

Best regards, Rod

Oh, hey -- I had to QUOTE that just to see it twice on the same page. :) 

Thanks, Rod!  I'm more often accused of being too complete (as in TMI = boring).


coolvibe-
I think the core would have to be updated to administer permissions the way you mentioned (which I think would be a nice improvement) from within a module's standard SETTINGS->PERMISSIONS interface.  A third-party module could remotely admin permissions this way but I think most admins would want to be able to do it directly from each module's SETTINGS interface.

Sounds like a good candidtate to add to the "Enhancement" request list:  http://support.dotnetnuke.com/project/Project.aspx?PROJID=23

About his, in a module that i'm doing I need to give acess only to user in a certain Rolegroup.
how can I do that?

The button must be hide for other users, but the module need to be show anyway

You'll either need to use your own custom SQL query or else use a couple of existing DNN queries.  One set of existing queries that would work is "GetRolesByGroup" plus "GetRolesByUser".  If any role appears in both sets of results then the specified user is a member of the specified group.
 
A custom query would probably be more efficient as it could be performed with a single call to the DB.  You'd want to write a "IsUserInGroup" stored procedure similar to the existing "IsUserInRole" stored procedure.
 
Hope that helps-

I never had used store procedure, because I don't have much experience, neither I never need it, because I used almost time sql code in the aspx.cs file.
but by the names I think that the option "IsUserInGroup" is the right choise, but how can I make it?
