Title: Possible for "Moderators" to Edit Articles?
Post by: espressoguy on October 25, 2008, 03:09:28 AM

Perhaps I'm missing something...
I don't see a way to give "Moderators" permission to edit Articles without making them moderators of a specific board. It appears that it's only possible to set a "Global Moderator" to Edit Articles because the interface says that "Moderator" is a board-specific permission. I don't see a way to change a member's status to "Moderator", I only see a way to make a member a "Moderator" of a specific board.

What I want is for individual members to have permission to edit articles without being moderators of any board. Is this not possible?

(My install is SMF1.1.6/TP1.0.5)

UPDATE: Okay I figured out the answer to my question. I was unaware of the fact that it is possible to create new membergroups with their own unique permissions. So that solves my problem; simply create a new membergroup and give it permission to edit articles.

What version of TP are you using? There are different features in different versions, so without knowing what version you have, we can't help you.

In general, you need to modify the permission of the Global Moderator group, but that's all I can tell you without more info.

Do the following:

ADMIN --> Permissions --> Select "modify" Global Moderator --> Under Tinyportal check "Manage Articles"

That should do it

Did you look in the top half of the page... where all the Tinyportal permissions are?

Do you have any Tinyportal permissions listed?

I assume you have Tinyportal installed correctly...

Are you looking under Global Moderator? Moderator will not have these options but Global Moderator will.

I can't answer your question on how to fix the fact that you are missing these options for your Global Moderator.

I am sure one of the TP guru's here will see this and suggest something.

If you are missing these options, tinyportal did not install properly for you. You will need to go through the manual install instructions and make sure all the code is altered, and the files have been uploaded.
