Members Only Areas / Access Control

Access control refers to the process of restricting or allowing access to specific web pages, or resources on your website. 

In Church Pages, the access control is achieved by restricting the access by individual user. You can also assign each user to a group or to a number of groups to provide a more customised experience or possibly to achieve better security. For example, users who are leaders within the church may be enabled to access areas which ordinary members cannot but those ordinary members can access areas which the general public cannot. So how do you go about setting up access control?
