How to give moderator access to a user ?

[sdelos]

Hello,

i've installed the forum 1.1.0 on jboss portal 2.6.3 and i would like to know if it is possible to give the moderator role to a user without giving the admin role.

Thanks,

Stéphane

Hi

Yes, it is possible. You have to define a new role in this file (http://anonsvn.labs.jboss.com/labs/jbossforums/branches/forums110P26/authz-jaae-plugin/src/resources/forums-authz-plugin.sar/META-INF/acl-permissions.xml) of your deployment.

I didn't try but you will have to probably add

<permission action="moderateForum" />

in your new role in the file.

Please refer to guide for help as well.

I didn't update it yet. But in case of security nothing has changed between 1.0.0 and 1.1.0. So, you can refer to the guide for 1.0.0.
