Adjusting "Default" Permissions for In-Portal

[Dmitry A.]

I think it's a good time (shortly after launch) to review, discuss and
adjust the default "Permission settings" for In-Portal CMS
distribution. Currently all permissions are very locked up and complex
to adjust. While this is always a good thing to have we need to
simplify the life for our Users and come up with a simple way to
switch between Standard and Enhanced permissions.

Few things to outline:

1. Good example is that we quite often see NO Permissions screen for
very small and simple sites. In most cases permission check is NOT
needed at all.

2. It will help to win some PHP processing time by shortening
additional permission checks when it's not needed.


Give me your quick opinion and we can discuss this in details once we
launch.

I created a Feature Request in Issue Tracker for this so we can move
one once have the clear plan:

Sasha, Sergey,

Please give us your opinion on how to approach this or whether we need
this done at all.

I think we have had enough complications with this and may be it's
time ti simplify life a bit :)


DA.
Cheers!

Hi,

directory permissions are a wonderfull tool for in-portal, as we can
do nearly everything playing with this: private online store, private
access for resellers... but as far as I have my experience, customer
who runs a merchant website never use it...

If we could deactivate the directory permissions, and thus speed up
admin and front-end, why not... It's not a priority, as there much
more to do with an easier admin interface for standard admins first,
but why not.
