<sigh> spent a frustrating evening looking for documentation on the net about joomla access levels and group id's.
i have a bunch of different forms, each of which i want to assign different access privileges for, but i can't find a clear descriptions of what gid value = what kind of user.
does anyone know where i can find documentation where access levels and group id's are clearly spelled out?

Hi boxcarmib,

I think group ids are still being implemented, there isn't much in Joomla apart from different access levels: Pubisher, editor, etc. Try searching on 'Joomla ACL' and you may find something. But basically the answer is to access the appropriate object or database table and use a switch statement to display the relevant form.

I think there's an example in the Share your Forms forum that explored this idea for guild members.
