is it possible to deny access to a web for a certain group BUT allow this group to view few topics from this denied-view web?

Thanks Alex

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

The order of access control evaluation is described in TWikiAccessControls. As you can see if you ALLOWTOPICVIEW then that overrides DENYWEBVIEW.

This doesn't seem to be the case. See my question at AccessRights

Sorry, the error you found is entirely unrelated to access control. It is a (known) bug in EditContrib, only relevant to TWiki 4.2.

It seems to be a bug in 4.1.2 too. Thanks anyway, as your suggestion at AccessRights has solved the problem.
