[Diego del Blanco Orobitg]

There is a closed Jira: https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-7814 about
this. If someone reopens it we can upload the patch. If not, we can clone it
to create a new JIRA to upload it.

Yeah Adam! That's good and works! What a shame not to know this before... 

Anyway, our patch allows to select the "hide level" from a folder in the
accessibility options. Only hide the folder or hide the folder and the
contents. So it do almost the same, maybe in an easy way.

The patch is "free" so if someone wants it, please ask for it. And of course
we'd like to have it in Sakai for next releases.

RE: non-visible folder

>From our FAQ:

>tml

   Q: How do I include a file in the resources tool which cannot be browsed
by users? In other words, how do I create a hidden folder?

    A: Create a new folder (call this 'folder A') and use the hide folder
radio button to hide it. This option is located in the Availability and
Access section just below 'timed release' on the Edit Details page of a
folder. Now create another folder inside the hidden folder ('folder B'); now
ensure that this folder (B) is not hidden (on Edit Details page) and then
access the folder permissions page, place a tick in the hidden column
against all the roles that you want to be able to view the contents of the
folder (B). Files can now be placed in folder B.

    Folder A will now appear greyed out to maintainer & contribute role but
can still be clicked on. Other roles will not see if unless explicitly given
permission to do so. Folder B is technically visible to all but as
non-maintainers cannot enter folder A, they will never see folder B (but
they will be able to access its contents if given the appropriate URL).
