Forum .LRN Q&A: Re: Possible to define an admin group in dotLRN?

Collapse
Posted by Hector Amado on
I am implementing this because we need it for our sites.

I've done this:

    - create a new dotlrn-admin group
    - this group has "admin" permissions on dotlrn
    - add a new UI to create/remove dotlrn-admins

I am working on community permissions, i will post a test-site this week for ideas.

Best regards,
Hector Amado

I've done several things:

  .LRN Site Wide Administration
      -  Administrators UI
      -  Edit community parameters

  I created a new group, dotlrn-admin, this group has permissions on
  dotlrn only. Users in this group can create users, classes,
  communities, etc...
  dotlrn-admin users does not have Site Wide permissions.


  - Users
    I removed  site-wide admin toggle

  - Edit community parameters
    There are new parameters for group administration. (classes, communities)


  Try it here:  http://smeagol.galileo.edu:8090
  Site Wide user:    mailto:test@oacsadmin.com    pass:  test
  dotlrn-admin user:  mailto:test@dotlrnadmin.com  pass:  test
  professor:          mailto:test@professor.com    pass:  test

  Please test it, create users, classes, etc ...
  Please post any comment, bug, suggestion in this thread or email.
