Haku2 Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 I think a good feature to add is limit the Admin CP for normal admins. That way you can limt the parts you want them to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 This is suppose to be a feature in 2.1.0. Although it would better to limit ACP access to ROOT admins and limited admins both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku2 Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 How do you know it is going to be a feature. I really want to know what is going to be in 2.1.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Then buy IPB and when 2.1 comes out you will be able to see the new features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Root Admins should be only the Owner of the Board. He should be able to Register the Board, Create new Groups with Admins Permissions, etc. Other admins should be allowed to Proform Certian Tasks as set by the Root administrator. i hope we will be able to only let some admins create subforums in certian forums only.

Logan Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Well the thing is, if you want ALL admins to be under one group like: Admin (which is the ROOT group). You don't want to have to create a whole new group just for limited permissions like Co-Admin with limited admin permissions. Thats why I want to be able to customize individual ROOT admin's permissions. That way all admins can be under one group, but some will have different permissions customizable by the "owner"(one with all permissions).

Antony Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Nope. I Prefer to Create Different Groups. Just hide your Group from the Members List if you dont want people to know about your Second Admin Group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Sports NZ Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 I would rather it have a feature where ROOT Admins can make a new group with ACP access, but limit what Admin CP catagories they can view and use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 It doesn't matter if you hide it from member list, when they post you will still see on the "Co-Admin/whatever". No I'm not removing the user group from the left panel either. There should just be an option to edit current ROOT admin's permissions. Or at least thats what I think.. and if its not included. Well.. I will have to see how much a custom programming quote would cost for such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 No. You should be able to edit admin's permissions. ROOT admin should be as it says ROOT full access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Yes you do have a point, although I don't want to make two user groups just to seperate permissions amoungst them. It in some cases looks a bit unprofessional, and causes hassle sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 No reason to call it a ROOT admin then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Yeah I know... thats the problem, I don't know what else could be done. Or what feature would allow this. I would put in a custom coding request, but I don't know how this would go about. So I guess I'm out of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Nevermind, I worked out a new user group for my site. And now I agree, permissions for just normal admins would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germany Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 I like this idea. By the way, just create another group called "Admin," with the same permissions and you have a non-ROOT admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 I will use that for now, but I still need to disallow certain parts of the ACP that aren't limited in the "limited" ACP access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SjorsK Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Far as my understanding: 2.x.z where x is major features/add-ons while z includes bugs/security fixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Far as my understanding: 2.x.z where x is major features/add-ons while z includes bugs/security fixes.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pretty much how it works with most software versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Outlaw, Say Matt didn't include a custom admin privleges feature in 2.1.0. Would you do a mod for it? I know your busy, but would you consider it even? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku2 Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 I know there was a mod that limited access by dean from invisionize. I pmed becuase it never worked and he said that he is not working on the mod any more and to remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Yes I tried Dean's mod as well, I remember him saying in the support topic for it that it doesn't work and to not use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku2 Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 The mod would be great if he fixed it. A lot of Dean's mods look good. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
