Prevent users to delete pages with certain templates

[juhis]

Hi,

I need permissions for certain users that they can delete pages with certain templates and not with other kind of templates. They need to be able to edit these templates but not delete them. What would be the best way to achieve this or is this even possible?

What I do is define a role called "deletor" with permissions to view, edit. and delete. Then for the appropriate templates give the deletor role the ability to edit the page. For those templates that should be edit only, only check edit for the editor role, not the deletor role as well.

 

Does that make sense?

Thank you, that makes perfect sense.
