Feature request - Add setting to determine permission flow for 'global' sidebar
Reported by dleffler | December 19th, 2011 @ 06:32 PM | in 2.0.3 (closed)
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.

There is a broad assumption made with this feature and revising it may alleviate the issue.

Might consider NOT implementing this since it appears we have a solution which will discretely determine 'global' scope modules (without an assumption based kludge) and can guarantee that all sectional modules/containers would inherit page permissions.

(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...
