CartThrob Permissions enables your CartThrob powered site to sell and edit content access permissions. You can use permissions to limit access to content to only those that have purchased access to it.

CartThrob Permissions is an addon for CartThrob. Like other CartThrob addons, it must be uploaded and installed on your website, and CartThrob must be active for it to run. To use this addon, you will need to create permissions in the administrative interface and add additional template tags to display these permissions. To sell permissions to customers, you must also adjust your template tags to include permissions when items are added to the cart. You can either manually assign permissions to items being added to the cart or assign permissions to items using the CartThrob Permissions field types.

Though you can use this module to create permission items, you can still create dynamic permissions by adding them manually as a parameter of the add_to_cart_form. If you create them through the admin interface, though, they’ll be easier to identify later, as you can set names & descriptions for each permission through the admin interface.

• Create & edit permission items
• Review & edit existing customer permissions, and apply new permissions to members
• Fieldtype for assigning configured permissions directly to entry ids.

Some permissions functionality is built into CartThrob, including the ability to block access to content (using has_permission tag) & to view existing customer permissions (using permissions tag). This addon specifically adds the ability to view and administer existing customer permissions in an administrative interface and create permission items and display them in templates and channel entries using the permissions fieldtype.
