Description

The current solution with icons is confusing (fact :)

I interviewed Manuele about his recommendations:

  • remove the possibility to be admin without being operator
  • putting users in 3 level:

    • user
    • operator
    • admin
  • putting these words behind checkboxes after each user in one column named Role

  • when changing it, give a confirmation. Making errors in user management is more dangerous
    than in restarting or reneedling (in doubt you can't revert it when you happen to remove
    your own role) and it happens less often

Checkboxes? That would imply to me, that there can be user+operator+admin, or user+admin, or admin and other permutation of them. What about dropdown box. I think these authorization levels relates inclusively ( user ⊂ operator ⊂ admin ).

I meant exclusive radio buttons
Ondrej - ( ) User (x) Operator ( ) Admin
Coolo - ( ) User ( ) Operator (x) Admin

A combobox is fine too - but is less discoverable.
