Hello again ! That's me again BAD BAD SNX ...
I have another question. Is there a way to create section Admins, Editors, etc ...
for example:
Editor A can only add content to seciton A and Editor B can only add content to secion B. ???

Do NOT try the following unless you have excellent knowledge of Elxis and of how softdisk works.
Even so you try it out at your own risk, (take a full backup in first place)
Go to Soft Disk in administration - component
If you need to limit a group of users to submit content from the frontend to a specific section or sections you need to create a new insert:
Name: SUBMIT_SECTIONS_xx (where xx the id of the users group that you need, eg: 24 for Administrators)
Section: core
Type: String
Value: id of the sections separated with comma (eg:11,24,37).
In the same way you can limit the users of a group within specific categories:
Name: SUBMIT_CATEGORIES_xx (where xx the id of the users group that you need, eg: 24 for Administrators)
Section: core
Type: String
Value: id of the categories separated with comma (eg: 2,4,28).
Beware: If you don't allow addition of content in a section all of the section's categories are automatically banned even if you allow them afterwards in SUBMIT_CATEGORIES_xx.
The general inserts SUBMIT_SECTIONS and SUBMIT_ CATEGORIES (with out group id) are the general Elxis settings which stand for all users.

Thank you Sirigos
I'll give a try ... ::) and post the results

I think Sirigos you made snx scared (although he is a bad-bad guy and he might deserves it :D ).
The usage of this feature is absolutely safe as it is a built-in Elxis core feature.
Do as Sirigos told you, and don't be afraid :P it will work fine.

snx are scared ?.... BOO :P

I was scared too, but when I saw it working WOW!
Thanks people!
