Currently if i enable some "boost block" for some roles, then for user 1 block for flushing page becomes invisible. Think this blocks should be always visible for user1. I know if i give permission to authenthicated it would be visible again, but then i have to create another role for plain registred users, or one for user1. Wouldn't it be better way that user 1 has always access to this blocks?

One more thing, i enabled boost block for some role "admin" and user 5 can see this block, but he can't "FLUSH PAGE" is this a bug or by design? I would like to have options to do this. This way my content admin can flush page as he just added new data to it and then complex "views insert/update" queries dont have to be run and slow down the site.

Title: Block visibilty for user 1 » Blocks Role Specific Visibility Settings Not Working
Category: support » bug

Hi,

I am having a very similar issue with the Block's "Role Specific Visibility settings" as it is not quite working as intended.

For example, I have restricted the visibility to the role "admin." However, other roles (that are not admin) and not authorized to see this blocks are able to see these blocks at the bottom of the page (mostly on pages that have views) when logged in.

Also, I second that it would be great if by default no role had access to see these blocks -- except user 1. Just a thought but wouldn't it be more efficient to use an administer boost permission to determine block visibility instead?

Thanks in advance for your help,

KH
