Re: Multiple Site Pages libraries to have different permissions when creating modern site pages

Hello,

What is the reason to have all the pages within the same site? 

Could you not have different sites so that different department handles their sites?

Then you could collect all the pages from the different sites and show it on a web part? :) 

Example:

HR Site,
HR Editors
All company viewers

IT Site,
IT Editors
All company viewers

Finance site,
Finance Editors,
All company viewers


Wiki-site 
A web part showing the pages from the three sites above. 

Yours sincerely,
Aref Halmstrand

    Thanks for your reply . Yes this is another approach, but i were thinking if i can do this inside the same site, since currently each department has only 20-30 articles they need to publish. so returning back to my original question, can not we have multiple site pages inside the same site?

    Thanks

      I see :) The short answer is unfortunately no. It is not possible to separate pages into different libraries and separate permissions to who can create what and maintain different pages depending on security groups.

      The easiest way and recommended way is to create multiple communication sites and then delegate the permissions as needed. 

      Then as I mentioned, use the news web part to fetch the data from the different sites. 

      Yours sincerely,

      Use seperate communication sites, as these will be tagged (the blue highlighted):

       

      This is best practice and easier for the users to understand.

       

      Use this as a reference:

        Thanks for the reply @Nicolasekheirallah ,, yes i know i can do it inside different sites, but my question if i can do it inside different libraries under the same site, as i mentioned in my previous reply ,, each department have around 20-30 articles only ..thanks.. maybe in the future we will migrate those to separate sites, but for now i prefer to do them inside the same site.
