I have a standard blog application with articles and categories. One category has many articles.
Users in admin panel can add new articles. What is the better way to give my users permissions to specific categories? E.g. editor can add only articles connected with ‘A’ category and can’t add article to ‘B’ category?
You can try using the django-permissions app: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-permissions
It allows you to specify permissions on a per-object basis. That is, you can say UserA has permissions specifically for CategoryA, as opposed to the django default of per-model permissions.
Update
For some reason, the author of this app didn’t update their pypi page with the proper location of the code repository. For reference, he renamed it to: https://bitbucket.org/diefenbach/django_permissions/overview
