Access to the features like Directory, Jobs, Events, Photo Gallery, etc. can be set based on Affiliation and Membership Type.

Step 1: Search for Access Control in the admin panel.

Step 2: You will be directed to a page listing all the features. Click on the "Edit" button next to the feature you want to configure access for. For example, if you want to set up access for the Directory, click "Edit" next to Directory.

Step 3: In the subsequent window, you can select the Affiliation and/or Membership Type you wish to restrict from accessing the feature. If you don't select any options, the feature will be accessible to all users.

For example, to restrict access to the Directory for Membership - Mentor and Affiliations - Student and Other. Check the respective checkboxes and click "Restrict."

You will see that the settings were successfully applied, and the restricted memberships and affiliations are displayed for the feature.

If a user with the affiliation Student tries to access the Directory, they will be directed to a page displaying a message. (The email address in the message will be the one in the site's footer.)


You can configure access for other features in a similar manner. Note that all features, except the Photo Gallery, are completely restricted from view. In the Photo Gallery, restricted users can still view but cannot upload photos.
