Talk:Imeji User Management

Scenarios needing new user role

• User without create collection role
  • for instance a student which should edit some images, but should not be allowed to create and upload own images
• Define the visibility of item besides of its status (pending/released)
  • Can be used to show pictures before releasing it.
  • Can be defined via an album or a collection (to avoid to define the visibility over all the single images).

User role concept

• Instead of defining a set of user roles, with a each a predefined set of privileges, we define a set of possible actions. Then the admin can define what each user is allowed to do.
• User group can be inculed?
