I'm wondering if it is possible to create a private blog or forum that would allow only certain individuals who are either tagged or given a certain permission level to see it?
Would it be possible to create a specific permission level that would allow you to assign that permission to people? Can you make it so that only people with a specific tag can view and post in a forum?
Thanks!

You can now restrict access to pages based on whether they are a member or not.

You have your blog which you want to only be accessible to fun people. People tagged “fun” get to see it and if you’re not tagged fun you can’t.
Inside the blog_post template you put logic to the effect of:
If page.parent == “fun blog” {
{% if request.sorta_logged_in? and request.current_signup.tags contains “fun” }
They have the “fun” tag. It is safe to print {{ page.basic.content }}
{ endif %}
} else {
//act like normal
{{ page.basic.content }}
}
(The code here is fake – it only describes how you might achieve this)
