Primary LanguagePHP

More User Roles

Description

This plugin adds two new user roles to Omeka sites, modifies one, and lightly modifies the admin user forms.

User Roles

  • Authors inherit the rights of Contributors but are able to publish their own items.*
  • Editors inherit the rights of Authors but are able to edit and delete Items and Files created by other users and make items Featured.*

* When the plugin is uninstalled, Author and Editor users are demoted to the Contributor role.

  • Researchers gain the ability to view unpublished Exhibits if Exhibit Builder is activated

Form Modifications

  • Sorts user roles by "power" – from least to most – in the user admin dropdowns
  • Annotates which user roles are created or modified by the plugin
  • Adds a link to plugin documentation on Github.
