Hi

How about to create a new permission for taxonomy module ?
"Administer vocabularies and terms" has to much permissions like manage fields/add new fields.

For example:
In our current project we have 3 roles (administrator, manager and editor).
We want managers to be able edit vocabularies and terms without allowing them to modify/add new fields in vocabulary.

Thank you.

I re-activate this issue as I need it too. Giving it the status "closed (works as designed)" is wrong as it is a feature request and not a bug report.

Thanks.

Well, this won't be added in Drupal 7. However, maybe there's a contrib module that will provide the solution you're looking for?

Moving the feature request to 8.x for now.

For a contrib module that does this, see Field UI permissions.

Closing in favor of #1848686: Add a dedicated permission to access the term overview page (without 'administer taxonomy' permission)
It has a patch there
