This past weekend, I went to Joomla Day Chicago to give a talk on Joomla 1.7 Access Control Lists (ACL). I posted my slides on SlideShare, and I was surprised to find out how popular they were!
Looking around, there isn’t a lot of documentation on ACL out there, but there’s a lot of curiosity about how it works. Below are two articles I wrote on ACL last summer, which may help supplement the presentation.
And if you really need some help with ACL, why don’t you plan on coming to see me present at Joomla Day New York City on October 22? I’ll be going through ACL in detail, and you’ll have the opportunity to ask lots of questions.
