Restricting access fully

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Guys,
I have set up a new user group called Editor.

Basically I want them to access the Dashboard and do Users etc, but not install themes or functional addons.

I have gone into Sitemap and used advanced permissions to ensure these sections cannot be seen by an editor when he accesses the Dashboard. So far so good.

However when the Editor edits a page he has the option to add the blocks I have let him see, BUT he can see 'Add from Marketplace' right next to the Add New tab.

This could give hime ideas which I don't want. Can we restrict access to this 'Add from Marketplace' tab to prevent trouble?

Yours Ian

i do not believe you can add things from the marketplace using that tab, right now there is no way to restrict it without hacking some code...

You can you know - I've just tried!

Perhaps one for your next release! Keep up the good work.

Yours

Adding
define('ENABLE_MARKETPLACE_SUPPORT',false);
to you site.php will remove all these options - however the trade off is that it will remove them for you as well.

I would like this feature too. I'm trying to setup editor accounts so that only the client has rights to install stuff, other people in the org are just editors and can't screw around too much.

It's straightforward to hide the marketplace and theme dashboard sections from those users, or to disable marketplace globally.

but no no matter what you do, editors can install themes and blocks from the page editing screen? It's a simple core hack to change this, but I really don't want to maintain my own branch of c5.

frz,

Was disabling marketplace for clients looked into?
