Hey there everyone! I'm wondering if it is possible to allow players to edit or create entries. If there is a section in a tutorial or anything like this, being pointed in the right direction would help.

Thanks all.

No. Player mode is read only. They get a note-pad from memory but largely it's there to view what the DM has shared.

Oh wow, that was fast.
I see.
If someone has a GM copy, can I then extend permissions to them?

If someone has a GM copy and they connect to your realm they will still only have Player View access to that realm. Realm Works is not a tool that allows GMs to concurrently edit a realm at the same time.

What you can do though is have multiple people with GM copies creating content that gets put into a master realm.

For example there are about 15 of us contributing content and feeding it into the master realm here.

Or, if you really trust the players, you can share your GM Login. There can be only one person logged in at one time though.

that can get tricky when you go to sync though. It really can mess things up. If things do go wrong, then the best case scenario would be one of you looses your work, worst case scenario, you both loose a lot more and beg LWD to fix your mess.

Dont know how that worst case scenario would occur, because only one user can be logged in at the time. Anyways I didn't test this (and never will), so maybe you are correct.

But isn't the problem more that RW has been licensed to the user, so he would not be allowed to share the login...

Off the top of my head, the worst case is probably unlikely... but I don't like to tempt fate. Anyway, your probably going to hear a lot of bitching from the person who lost a lot of data entry work. Which may be even more of a pain.

The other issue that can occur is if one of the two decides to delete the realm. From previous discussions, it sounded like the ability to sync/upload/download for that realm is gone. I'd guess it has something to do with the GUID either being erased from the LWD servers or marked as unusable in some way... I'm betting it's deleted for future use by someone else while security prevents the uploading of a now unknown GUID.

If you share your login the other user(s) could do anything to your account up to and including permanently deleting your realms from the cloud server. That would result in those realms being permanently deleted locally the next time you synced.

Sounds like a terrible idea to me.
