Articles Private Access
What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
I would prefer the ability to fully flesh out my articles using the wonderful templates and all of their accompanying sub-prompts (I honestly did not expect to find them as useful at prompting me to write more and in-depth as they do, so thanks), but I am not ready to reveal all of my information to my players yet. For example, I want to write the History of a guild in my article while I am writing the whole thing. But the players, while they may know of the guild and some details, and thus would have access to the article to help track the information, may not know the secret history of how the "Wu-Tang Clan" got started. There should be a option to mark each subsection of the article template as either private or public, and possibly even for specific subscriber groups or players.How does this feature request address the current situation?
This would allow game master to finish fully fleshing out and organizing their articles without having to cram everything into the "Secrets" section, which can be cumbersome and slow. Then when the information comes out in a game session, they can simply go flip a switch and make it available.What are other uses for this feature request?
The Team's Response
Hello everyone! For all Grandmasters and above this is already perfectly possible using Subcontainers (subscriber group containers) You can find the guide here: https://www.worldanvil.com/w/WorldAnvilCodex/a/subscriber-containers :)

on 2022-03-04 02:25I would also like to see more control over this. Grandmaster honestly seems like a REALLY high tier to put this when it just feels like a really basic/common use case.

on 2022-02-28 03:23As the guys have said Grandmasters can already do that using subcontainers or visibility toggles BUT you can also do it using secrets. It's a bit harder to manager - but possible.

on 2022-02-27 23:54This already exists, it's just gated behind the Grandmaster subscription.
