Restricting individual articles and visibility

    I am an admin for our company’s Knowledgebase sites and we are using the KnowAll theme by HeroThemes. We have a site used by internal employees and are planning on having this same site be able to be accessed by external representatives and have a few questions if you would be able to help answer them.

    Questions:

    We want our internal employees to have access to all the content on the site. They should be able to search and find any article/page that is posted. We have external representatives who we want to have access to a paired down version of the site. The external reps would only be able to search for and navigate to the pages that we want them to see. If they do not have permission to an article/page they shouldn’t even know it’s there (i.e. it doesn’t come up when they search or navigate the site).

    1. Is there a way of restricting visibility to individual articles unless logged in (not an editor/admin)?
    2. How does the search functionality work?
    3. If you limit the categories, does it also limit what can be searched (i.e. for specific articles and categories)?
    4. Is this plugin for access control compatible with HeroTheme’s KnowAll theme?
