Two Separate User Accounts Section Editors

Hey Steve,

So you have two schema .ini files that pull from the same table, could you mail them into support so we can take a look?

Usually if you want to have two different editors for the same table you'll need to create the form outside of CMS Builder.

Perhaps this free plugin could help you too:

Hi Robin,
Yes, I have two schema .ini files that pull from the same table. However, both were not created within the CMS. I downloaded the user accounts schema .ini, duplicated and saved it as another file name - then uploaded it into the schema folder. Sounds like my previous post was interpreted as I created both within the CMS, which is not the case... Do you still want me to submit both schema .ini files, or no since they were not both created within the CMS?

I appreciate the link for the free plug-in to hide certain fields. This will prove useful in other builds where there are people of various skill levels.

Since the Website Membership plug-in is set to use the main CMS user accounts table, I have two reasons to want two separate section editors. 1st, I don't want our clients editor staff to be able to view and edit our "super admin" entry within the CMS. 2nd, I have required fields in each .ini file set differently.

My goal was to have the regular website members info be viewable by our clients editor staff in one of the section editors/schema .ini. In the "admin" section editor, my goal was to have it pull only the site administrators - making sure that this one is not viewable through the CMS by anyone but the admins / "Defined CMS Editors".

I know there is the "isAdmin" for web page coding aspects (toggled to 0 or 1 depending what we want to be visable to whom). I'm just not sure how to go about setting something like that in the back end of the CMS to accomplish that type of filtering.

Thank you in advance!

The CMS actually did not create a new table when I duplicated the schema file manually (verified by checking our database). The CMS actually was using both user account schema .ini files off the same table.

I'm not in a super rush since the individual acting as their main website editor and has access to all CMS areas has IT experience and was told not to touch specific credentials. I just wanted to set it up to be fool proof.

Just to confirm, there is no way within the schema .ini file itself to filter records based on the isAdmin value - correct? And to accomplish this I would need to create my own plug-in.

Thanks again, Robin.

Hey Steve,

Yes that's right, you cant filter records in a schema file. The schema file is not referenced when you view a record, you would need a plugin. The new access features in 2.08 sounds like exactly what you need though.

Thanks,
Robin

Hey Robin,
Okay, perfect. I'll just hang tight for version 2.08 to be out of beta and update this installation instance.

Thank you for your assistance.
