HESK Settings

[bastiaan.c]

Hi,
In our HESK System more admins can login... some of them should really not be allowed to edit the settings.

Question:

How to switch off the tabs: general and email.

Thanks

In that case you will need to create staff accounts, not administrator accounts, and limit access to the settings page only to users you want to give access to.

[bastiaan.c]

But what if they do needs access to settings...? only not the info like for example the database settings

Then this is something you will need to modify yourself, HESK can only be setup to allow access to all features or none.

This is ok, many ITS differ only when using tickets/departments, the rest is "all or nothing"
We modified it a bit, so only the god_admin (UID 1) has access to settings, since noone else need it.
But one suggestion you may consider for next updates (i. e. Hesk 3) would be to remove database settings.
If one want to edit them, they can edit the approbiate file (like most scripts do).

Hi Alcazar,

Would you mind sharing your modification on this one??
Thanks

Its not that difficult

In file "inc/show_admin_nav.inc.php" you have to replace

Code: Select all

if (hesk_checkPermission('can_man_settings',0))

with

Code: Select all

if ($_SESSION['id'] == 1)

and in files "admin/admin_settings.php" and "admin/admin_settings_save.php"

Code: Select all

hesk_checkPermission('can_man_settings');

with

Code: Select all

if($_SESSION['id'] != 1) {
	hesk_error($hesklang['no_permission'].'<p>&nbsp;</p><p align="center"><a href="index.php">'.$hesklang['click_login'].'</a>');
}

Note: this is using the default admin-dir. If you renamed it, change the path accordingly.
