MultiExcerpt Enhanced Permissions Macro

This macro allows you to safely and in a controlled manner expose content to users and/or groups which is on a page with 'restricted permissions'.

In other words it lets you easily 'add certain viewers' to content that is otherwise hidden from them. 

Usage:

  • Wrap some content on a restricted page with the "MultiExcerpt Enhanced Permissions" macro on any page with restricted permissions. 
  • Define in the macro parameters which users and/or groups who can see the content
  • Add a multiexcerpt-include to any page where the 'users' and/or 'groups' granted permissions have access. They will also be able to see this otherwise restricted content.
