chasy, did you mean 'the dw community a a whole'? Or 'dreamwidth.org/community/random-rpg-or-discussion-comm' which you as mod may control the membership of? I took it to mean the second, and that seems both good and useful to me--I can see being able to easily post something on my journal that was only for members of a comm to read being handy. The first one, I agree with zvi, not as useful... Chris

Would your DW community included authenticated Open ID readers? Because in that case, anyone, for the low, low price of remembering their Yahoo!, AIM, or LJ-clone ID would be able to view your entry. And even if not ... anyone for the relatively low price of US$3 or haunting an invite code comm for a minute would be able to view your entry. You'd basically be keeping out spiders, which is something people want to do, but I'm not sure that DW membership is a meaningful identifier of anything about a person except that they've ... heard of DW. It's a really, really false level of security.

"This entry viewable to: [] public [] DW community [] friends [] custom friends groups" It's the "DW community" classification that I'm adding - so that anyone part of the community can see the entry but not just any joe schmoe surfing the web can see it. I have a reason for wanting this feature but I'm not going to try to explain it unless someone wants me to. It'd be clunky and long. :) - Chasy. -- Sent from my mobile device + + + ><> + + + www.chasyhasanose.com "Faith is to believe what we do not see, and the reward of faith is to see what we believe." - Saint Augustine "My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do." - favorite children's song. _______________________________________________ dw-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dwscoalition.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dw-discuss
