Are there any options in the new update to have more options for permissions.

Such as users only able to create drafts and users able to publish etc?

Hi Paul - I'm totally open to that. I guess I'd be interested to know a full list of those needs and how that would work? Seems like this approach could be achieved: http://octobercms.com/forum/post/hide-backend-columnsfields-with-permissions?page=1#post-7301

I managed to do something similar, using '::extend'. I am guessing I could extend your controller and model as long as I use it in public function boot() ?

Something like...

$user = BackendAuth::getUser();

if(!$user->hasAccess('plugin.miscellaneous.access_postspublish')){ return; }

I believe something in that vein would work. But if this is something more broadly needed, I'm open to including functionality natively into the plugin.

Cool.

I am not sure if it helps, but I think the free blog plugin allows this so maybe it could be a good starting reference point.

yeah they slipped that in there. I missed that. Will be in the next push.
