Disable FrontPage?

Is there a way (aside from downgrading users to 'contributor') to restrict a
user from editing a site in FrontPage?

TIA

Yes, you can add attributes to the Project tag in the ONET.XML file to
prevent FrontPage edits.

Thanks for your reply Heather. If I correctly understand the articles you
linked to, it appears that this is a per-site setting. Is there a way to
disable FrontPage editing on a per-user basis (but still allowing them to
make web-designer level changes). Any ideas? Custom code, etc? Thanks.

Sorry, not that I am aware of. Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

Doubtful... Heather's links show how to do it in the site def. files. You
can't specify users to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks for the responses. Also note that we have had a user edit a site using
WORD! Of course, this screwed the site up big time. Just FYI. . .

Hmmm, not that I know of. You could hit the FrontPage newsgroup and Google.

Regular sites meaning non-WSS sites I presume ?

(If not look higher in the thread)

I'm so twisted for me a WSS site IS a regular site.
