connecting lists and users ( via roles ? )

Beitrag von Schwartz »

I must admit, that I am not quite familiar with the ADMIDIO package yet, so please enlighten me, if I ask for or suggest something that is already possible. I have looked in the documentation and have explored the system, but I have some questions/suggestions :

You can attach a user to one or more roles. For me, this should also mean, that credentials should follow the roles.
I can't find out how to attach a list to a role - or where to define which lists/views a user should have access to.

- Where do one define which lists or views a user should have access to ?

It is a smart thing, ( but it is not so smart that users anyway are allowed to se other participants via the view - this is not logical )that You ( when creating an event ) can define if users are allowed to see a participation list, but I can't find out how to define my own participation list as the ONLY list the users should see when they are allowed to see the participation list.
- Is this possible - and how ?

I am looking for a way to define a users acces to a list via a connection between user-role and role-list or user-role-list. Am I on the right track, or have I completely misunderstood the meaning of roles ?

Maybe my two/three questions are the same - it is not transparent for me - I am still rather new to this software.

Kind regards

Additional

I can see that on a list You can set role(s).
I have tried to create a user and attach user to a new role ( only ).
Then I have made the address list not-available to all and only to "members" role.
Then logged in as the newly created user, and click on an event that has show-participation available.

Then clicked on the list ( It should be the address list ? ) and the list is shown. I would have guessed that no list would have been shown, as this list was not available to the role "vinklub" and the user is ONLY member of the "vinklub".

So I guessed that there WAS a link ( permission ) via the role, but this seems not to be the situation.

Therefore my question(s)

Kind regards

It seems that there is something going on with the lists and views for events.
I can see a : Enhancements to roles and lists #506
And a : New preference to enable/disable list module #505

I guess that these issues addresses some of what I am asking for.
I hope that the "configuration" will be possible on event-level, as it will be dependent on the event/eventowner, how much You want the other users/participants to see via views/lists.

I nearly can't wait to see the ver. 3.3 - I think it will improve the event handling, and hopefully in later versions, the event-system will be further enhanced.

Some short explaination:

- with roles you set the permissions which other or own profile users could view.
- lists are only a special "view" to a role where you have the permission to view the users.

So if you have the right to view a role, you can have x lists the user can choose or select.

Hope this will explain it.
