Hi folks,

Firstly - the Campaign Editor solution would be something that should be able to be implemented in something like a wiki format. I'm not saying a Media Wiki per se... there's lots of different wiki formats. Hell - even SharePoint will allow you to make Wiki sites where you wrap markup (double square brackets around a term - e.g. "[[term]]" ) around a piece of text and it will either link you to an existing page for the term - or once saved, the link will take you to a dialog to create a page for that term.

As per the thread title... it'd be great if we could have more fine-grained control over campaigns and campaign resources. If you did something like a wiki for the campaign editor solution with permissioned roles, you could simply flip permissions switches on wiki pages that the characters are allowed to see once they've "unlocked" them via play. That would be a great way to share maps, in-game text that they pick up, etc as well.

Also - and this is something I didn't understand when I signed up - the administration of a campaign does not appear to be transferable to a different account. Why this might be useful?

Customer X has a bit of free cash - splashes out on a membership for themselves. However, their interest in D&D Beyond is more as a player than a DM. They splash out to unlock the full features of D&D Beyond for their group, create a campaign so they can invite other players, then find that the content they've unlocked is only available if they're RUNNING the campaign. They can't transfer the campaign to their preferred DM.

Not only this, but Customer X can't delegate a player as Campaign Scribe to help them maintain the wiki as events play out, encounters are overcome and character histories are created. 

Nor can Customer X designate a player or non-player as a "GM Assistant" to help out with large battles if the party is larger than usual, etc.

Nor can Customer X provide item creation rights to their characters to allow for bespoke crafting orders, etc.

As you can see... there's a number of scenarios where some more fine-grained control over permissions would be wonderful - and given the price you folks are charging for the offering, I'd have assumed they would already exist. If I've missed something in the interface as it currently works, please let me know. But without these fundamental features in play, I'm not sure I'd recommend the product to others.

I think your suggestions are great, and pointing out use case scenarios helpful.   I did want to point out, though that, in your first scenario, if DM Y were to set up a campaign and invite Customer X to it, Customer X can currently turn on content sharing in that campaign and share all their purchased content with everyone in the campaign.  One need not be the DM to share content.    Transferring campaigns/DM roles would still be very handy, and I hope it gets implemented eventually.

Ah - that's helpful to know. Cheers.
