Description

Changes

Buttons

Before

  • Only explicit allow/deny states are displayed

After

  • Use 3-states-buttons to allow explicit values and also display the default/inherited/implied values
  • Clearly mark implicit rights (for example when explicitly selecting 'Admin' also marked the implied rights 'View', 'Edit', etc.)

Global Administration

Before

  • Display all existing users and groups with empty or explicit states

After

  • Display just the users/groups that have explicit values for rights
  • User will need to manually add the user/group they want to provide explicit rights

Wiki Administration

Before

After

  • Compacted mode for the display of 'Users' and 'Groups'
  • Local Wiki groups properly marked

Page Administration

Before

After

  • 'Page' and 'Page & Children' compacted into a single 'Page' category
    • Terminal pages are considered a deprecated concept, so we reduce this feature's visibility
    • Page only rights can still be set by advanced users from Object editor or Rights editor
  • 'Creator' implied rights displayed for clarity
