View Full Version : When adding new usergroup based on existing usergroup update all page permissions

I just added a new usergroup based on my admin usergroup to my forum.

Now I have about 30 pages for my mainsite... and honestly having to go through even the "quick permission" section and giving this usergroup the same permission as my admin one is extremely time consuming and annoying.

Is there not a way so that when I create a usergroup based on admin permissions that it does the same for the cmps?

Unfortunatly I don't think that's going to be something that is very easy to do.

Alright, thanks for the response though. It's just a pain and time consuming to give each page the right permission

Yea, I can see how it could be. We thought about changing things so that users had permission to each page/module by default a little while ago, but decided against that since it would be worse for a user to inadvertently gain access to a page/module that they shouldn't have access to than vice versa. At least with the Quick Permissions page though it's not *that* hard to update your permissions. :)
