I need to set up Blogs visible only for individual users.  My boss wants to communicate with Employees on Blogs to keep track of their projects.

I tried this two ways,

1)initially I created several Child Blogs and I was going to make these viewable to specific users only.  I read some descriptions that this was possible but couldn't figure out how to do it.

2) So I tried to create a Blog for each user and set that to private, figuring the my boss could log in with the Host account and check each individual users blogs.  But I could figure out how to make these if I didn't set these to 'Public' even logged in as that same user I couldn't see them, it just said "no entires found for this blog"

Any help with this would be appreciated, preferably method #1

I have gotten version #1 working but I'm still looking for a way to do #2.  According to this site

http://www.dnncreative.com/Tutorials/DNNTutorialsforCoreModules/BlogModule/tabid/308/Default.aspx

...it is possible.  But i can't find an explanation of how to do it anywhere (and I don't have $78 right now for the subscription to this site, which I may end up doing if I can find out they definitely have a workable way to do this...)

Their FAQ states:

4) Can I allow certain users access to view certain blogs?
Yes, we detail how to do this in the video tutorial

 

Does anyone here know how to do it or is this some kind of secret technique requiring a hack?

Hi Pepellula,

I guess that the method suggested in the page uses custom view permissions to the page itself rather than to the Blog module.

Best regards,
Dario Rossa
