=== Category Access ===
Tags: categories, users
Contributors: coppit

This Wordpress plugin provides category protection on a user-by-user basis.
Posts in a protected category will not be visible unless the user has
privileges to view that category.

The latest version can be found at http://www.coppit.org/code/

NOTE: This plugin *should* work on Wordpress versions less than 2.0, but it
has only been tested on 2.0. Please report any experiences you have on older
versions of Wordpress.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the 'category-access' folder to your plugins folder, usually
   'wp-content/plugins/'
2. Activate the plugin on the plugin screen
3. By default, all categories will be hidden. Go to the "Category Access" page
   in options to change these.
4. To set category access on a user-by-user basis, edit the user's
   profile.

Unfortunately, WordPress 2.0 doesn't provide good hooks for plugin authors to
modify the previous post and next post links. Even the capabilities they
provide are buggy. :( Hopefully both of these will be fixed in the future.

In the meantime, you will need to do the following to fix previous/next posts
links: Edit your theme files, adding "category_access::" in front of every call
to next_post_link and previous_post_link. For example, in the default theme
the file "single.php" must be modified in two places.

NOTE: This will cause your theme to call Category Access' versions of the
functions, which both fix the bugs in WordPress, and also excludes posts for
hidden categories. If you ever uninstall or deactivate this plugin, you should
change your theme back to the way it was.

== Known bugs ==

- Shows the next page link even if all the articles have been hidden
- Haven't fully tested it for calendars and whatnot.
- Number of posts next to the monthly archives isn't adjusted for the hidden
  posts. (See http://wordpress.org/support/topic/48412#post-266674)
