<b>How to upload news<b>
We are a student group who are developing a portal for a organization. Does anyone know how to make access for these users to upload new newsarticles on the site?
We have tried to find a template to di this,without success. Any ideas?

<b> thanx in advance <b>

Hi Jon Arne!

In the trivial case this is handled by the admin interface (obviously)..

- go to _your_url_to_the_admin_interface_/role/list
- edit the fitting role
- grant edit permission to the content of whatever node or section you whant
- clear cache
- have a beer (i.e. go back to your normal student activity)

In the non-trivial case, when you e.g. want people to publish news-objects from the "norml" view of your site, you need another medicine.
