Updated privilege controls for v0.7.0

looks awesome

@julian I wanted to ask this for sometime... what's the "Find Category" access for?

[julian]

The "Find Category" permissions allows you to fine-tune whether categories are "discoverable".

For example, I remember back in the day there was a secret club that only special members got to post to, called "Area 51". I could see the category on the forum index, but I couldn't go inside. -- that would be "Find Category" checked but "Access & Read" unchecked.

@julian got it

@julian Does changing access for administrators have any effect? I don't see any change.

[julian]

Nope, I should remove admins from that list..

@julian I think registered-users and guests should be at the top of the list as well.

Few UI issues and suggestions:

Clicking on edit for any category changes background color of "Categories" nav item on left.

Under "PRIVILEGES / ACCESS CONTROL" section, clicking on any checkbox messes the UI ("User" column)

I think there should be an option to remove a user from the user specific access list.

I can't seem to set permissions at user level. It doesn't let me check the checkbox.

@psychobunny added an option to duplicate a category in the previous UI. Are you going to add that in this UI?

Thanks to the team.

Is there any way to remove a group from the list, or re-order the list?
What I would like to archive is:

new users -> no access to category
registered users-> access, create topic and reply

Unfortunately I added the registered users line first, so even new users have access to the category.

It would be nice if a re-order of line with drag&drop would be possible

@wellenreiter The order is not relevant, the privilege code checks to see if you're in any of those groups, and if you are, then you get access.

You'll probably want to uncheck all the privileges from registered-users..., and add users to a new group as they are manually approved.

[wellenreiter]

Thanks for the fast answers.

I will revoke the post and reply attribute from the registered-users group and create a new group with post and reply permission, where I add users based on some rules.

Problem is solved
