I think i actually have the same question. Let me try to explain from my point of view.
Currently I have a site that runs on joomla. I have been looking into word press but can not find the same user access option as joomla. let me explain. This site is an online gaming community. that plays a game against other “family’s” When anyone comes to the site they are met with a brief explanation of the site and the “family” and have a few choices as far as links. Now when someone becomes a member of the site the admin must first accept thief registration and then when they login they have access to several chat-rooms as well as other very useful tools for playing the game. There are also downloads and pictures available only to members.
On the front end of the website there are three levels of access for content; public, Registered and Special. public is obvious, its visible to anyone, registered content is only visible to those who’s registration has been accepted by the admin, and special content is only visible to the site admins. there are actually several user levels that fall into special but basically anyone who has access to post or edit content.
Is this type of user access achievable through wordpress?
