Admin Groups

[hypedave]

Will there be two admin groups, like

Administrator
Co-Administrator

for us admins who have co-admins on our boards, giving the co-admins less admin power but some power?

Not currently but development isn't over yet either.

[hypedave]

sweet, that would be a nice small add on :cool:

[tubedogg]

Not exactly small - it would require rewriting much of the ACP to take multiple permissiom sets into account.

[hypedave]

ah yeah I see your point now, hmmmmm
cant you jus take a copy of the admincp and copy it to another folder, and take some options out, kinda like the mod folder,

I like the sound of co-admin it would be great if it happened!

[hypedave]

can we get someone to third the motion so we can move it to developement

I hypedave First the motion
anjam has second the motion :D

[Raz Meister]

Will there be an option to give specific rights to a designer?

i.e. only have permissions to change the styles and nothing else.

[anjam]

It would be really good, so co admin can just make for example a sub forum and stuff but can't do other things!

There really isn't anything to move to development. The developers each have a list of things on their TODO list and hopefully once those are done, it will be released. Not really sure what the need is since you can lock of some things already using the config.php file and you shouldn't make people admins if you don't absolutely trust them.

well yeah I get your point on that but im sure alot of use have admins where the admins only need to do certain things withint the admincp, like jus manage the templates. oh well it was a nice suggestion, guess we will see this on vb3.1. thanks though, its no big deal to me if its gets added or not. Never knew there was a way to lock certain admins functions out of the config.php guess I'll go read up on that then
