The 'Minutes' content type allows the attachments of minutes to events. You cannot add minutes through the 'Create content' page, but must add them through the actual event.

To add Minutes, open the Event and use the command link listed at the bottom of the post. Look for 'Post minutes to this event'. If you see 'View minutes', this means minutes have already been posted. View them and edit if you wish.

If you are using the 'Board Meeting Minutes' Book page method, please make sure you select the eLerning term 'board' to make sure the post appears in the main 'Minutes' listing.

To restrict visibility to Board members only, be sure to set the 'Grants' permissions appropriately. There's a 'Grant' FAQ entry for this as well.

If you need help, contact us. Postings will be reviewed before publication.

You can assign the rights in the access control to one user only, i.e., limit to 'author', and assign the post to that user. You can also leave the authorship and assign to any number of additional individual users. See the 'Grant' tab when editing or creating the node.

The real power and convenience comes when using the user 'Roles' feature to assign rights. 'Roles' are like groups or types of users that automatically get to do whatever that type of user can do when assigned the role. Users can have multiple roles. The role with the highest permissions takes precedence, when multiple roles apply to an action under consideration.
