What is ACL?

ACL (Access Control List) components restrict your users from accessing certain parts of your site. They allow you to restrict access to visitors, for example, while allowing site administrators or editors to write or publish as needed.

Community ACL: Joomla Access Control allows you to quickly and easily sort your users into groups that define which users can add, edit, or publish content. How you manage your user control is limited only by your imagination! To see how it works inside of Joomla!, check out our demo.

Define Groups, Roles and Functions.

This Joomla ACL component is the perfect solution for any website with Joomla! that requires users to log in and access information. When you define your groups, you can either assign your own access levels or utilize the powerful Functions feature to determine how they will interact with the site.

Synchronize with your other sites for faster administration!

Community ACL includes a Multi-Site Sync feature that allows you to synchronize your settings with multiple websites. Any changes you make on your master site will apply to the other websites you own, saving you valuable time and energy.

Allow or Deny users access to your site by default.

Need to restrict access for a while? Community ACL: Joomla access control allows you to instantly "Default Allow" or "Default Deny" access to users. (This comes in handy during updates.)

Communicate between Community Builder and Community ACL.

If you are one of the many who uses Community Builder, our Joomla ACL component is THE component for you! Community ACL Joomla access control will automatically assign all newly registered users into the groups, roles and functions that you specified, so you don't have to set them individually each time a new user registers for your site.

Sections, Categories and Articles make up the hierarchy of information on your Joomla! site. Our ACL component allows users to write, edit, or publish depending on their access level.

Define Role Access to Sections, Categories and Articles!

Define user control levels for each user role in your website to the nth degree!
