     1Wordpress allows fine grain control over user permissions using "roles". There are two kinds of content on the website:
    12
     3* Pages: Used for static content (home page, geoforall page, ...). Each page can have be restricted to users with a specific role.
     4* Posts: Used for dynamic content - when used as a blogging platform each post represents an update from the blog. We are using "custom post templates" with additional fields beyond a simple text block.
