I want to restrict content update (author, edit, publish) by user login to a specific category.
IF possible dont want to hack joomla code.
Any ideas much appreciated.

You only need to set the permissions for the category to the editor, author etc.  Then all your other categories set those permissions higher eg; Publisher, Manager etc.

Not quite the solution I am looking for.  I cannot find  category permissions on User Manager.  They are global across all categories.

I want a user to login on front end and only be able to author or publish a category that is assigned to that user. Sorry I wasnt more clear first time round.
