Is there a way to restrict a specific user group to be able to add a component to a page? At a template level, the component should be allowed, but only specific authors should be allowed to add the component to a page
Hi,
There is no way to restrict a component to add to a page, you can hide a component from the list but the user will be able to copy past existing components. Though you can disable the component editing for users based on path or a component

if you want to go with this approach just create a sling Filter to disable editing
