Description
Maybe you can add a permission for this module "administer userplus". Now only the site administrator can work with the module. I want other users with a webmaster role to be able to work with userplus.
Cool module by the way!
#1
I agree that the permissions could use some work to allow for more delegation of user management. Currently, only users with 'administer users' permission can use userplus.
Here is what I'm thinking:
My main concern is that I don't want to open up too many security holes, but I think that administrators are going to be able to figure out how to secure their sites properly with these new permissions in place.
We may want to allow either the user with 'administer userplus settings' rights to exclude some roles from the role assignment screen, but that's probably a follow-on issue.
#2
The proposal in comment #1 has been checked in and should be available shortly in the 6.x-2.x-dev snapshot.
