| | So it is like community/organization role, but only specific for certain community/organization. Posted on 4/7/10 4:55 AM. |

| |
| | Yes, a team has context of a Community or Organization. |

| | Hello,
This feature isn't available in the preview release I downloaded.
When will that be integrated? Will there be a "second" preview release or a release of the CE soon? Posted on 4/7/10 7:19 AM. |
| |
| |
| | Hi Manish, Thank you.
What's difference between team and User Group? Posted on 4/7/10 7:34 AM. |
| |
| |
| | Yes, it has been added after preview release. You can see it in trunk. |
| |
| |
| | Jonas,
A user group has scope of a portal while team is always exclusive to a community or organization.

| | Hi Manish, Can you please let me know when can we expect Communitity and Enterprise version release of Liferay 6.0 Posted on 4/8/10 1:55 AM. |

| | Hi Manish
Your answer to Jonas and to me where little contradictory, because "User group" is not a "Role" and you cannot define permissions to user group. Well, I did some tests on latest version trunk and I did not find away to bind permissions to team nor roles (portal or community/organization) to team. So I got confused, what team is for? |
| |
| |
| | A "Team" is like a community role but is only available to that community. No one else can see it in another community. Whereas if you defined a "Community Role", that would be availalbe for all communities.
Suppose you're a school and each class room was a community. It would make sense to create two Community Roles called "Teacher" and "Student".
Suppose a teacher wanted to break up his students into smaller teams for and gave them funny names like "Silly Bears Team" / "Spiderman Team", etc.
Now the teacher can say, students in Silly Bears Team can post to this message boards category, but NOT to the Spiderman team.
Click on a message board category and hit "Permissions" and you'll see how it can be assigned now. Manish, you should probably post a screen shot to that page and then it'll make sense. |

| | Very well explained. Thanks Brian. |
| |
| |
| | Brian, thanks for clarification.
So it was like a role. I did found the way to add Permissions to team from "Message board", "Web content management" and so on. Seems to be data related and currently there is no "Define permissions" tab like roles have. Anyway this looks excelent new feature and propably is very useful in future. |

| |
| | Very nice and usefull feature.
We have communities, locations, organizations, user groups, roles and now user teams. It's a wide range of opportunities to manage permission level.
But you do not think it's time to refactor the permissions system to simplify it to users ? Now is hard enough to understand and explain to normal users. Posted on 4/12/10 8:36 AM. |
| |
| |
| | Thanks Brian. It IS nice feature. |

| |
| | Nice Feature Posted on 4/14/10 10:15 PM. |

| |
| | Thats good. But I think you can achieve this with current version of liferay as well. Like if you create a role called "Silly Bears" as a community role and dont assign users to that role for some communities and just assign users to that role for decided communities I think it should be ok. Let me know I am understanding it wrong. |
| |
| |
| | Users was already there for permission algorithm 1 to 4. I think because of performance issues Liferay has changed to Roles. |
| |
| |
| | @Zankar, without team feature, there is no way to stop someone belonging to other community being added to "Silly Bears" role. Using team feature, the new team will not be visible in other community and so no accidental assignment. |
