Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

Feature request - Add setting to determine permission flow for 'global' sidebar

#447

In previous (pre-2.0.3) versions, the 'global' sidebar inherited permissions from the current page. In 2.0.3 (develop) it never inherits permissions from the page, so only the admin user has access to the 'global' sidebar and must grant permissions from that container to other users.

  • We could add a security setting which has the algorithm continue to drop into the page permission check and act like the old permission system.

    (from [e632ce739c08109e13ed658fc1761423a4ec79f8]) Changes to a correct algorithm (vs a kludge) for determining 'global' (non-sectional) modules to prevent their inheritance of page permissions. Also corrects create=edit permission logic. [#422 #215 #447 state:resolved owner:dleffler] https://github.com/exponentcms/exponent-cms/commit/e632ce739c08109e...
