add new local permissions

[Martin Truckenbrodt]

Hello,
to get the access to new MCP page controlled I want to add new local permissions.
At the ACL_OTPION_TABLE I have added:
n_ - 0 - 1 - 0
n_leader - 0 - 1 - 0
At the ACL_ROLES_TABLE I have added:
ROLE_NEWSLETTER_LEADER - ROLE_NEWSLETTER_LEADER_EXPLAIN - n_ - 1
At the ACL_ROLES_DATA_TABLE I've added two entries with the two options and the same role.
At the ACL_USERS_TABLE I have added a new column called newsletter_id and I have a entry for one user to test the n_leader (moderator) permission. I looks like a forum moderator permission but forum_id = 0 and newsletter_id ist set to the id of the newsletter.

At the the info for the MCP page I have:

Code: Select all

				'send'		=> array('title' => 'MCP_NEWSLETTER_SEND', 'auth' => 'acln_leader || acl_a_newsletter', 'cat' => array('MCP_NEWSLETTER')),

I'm trying to open the following link:

Code: Select all

	'U_MCP'					=> (newsletter_leader_status($user->data['user_id'], $newsletter_id)) ? append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}mcp.$phpEx", "n=$newsletter_id&i=newsletter&mode=send", true, $user->session_id) : '',

I'm still getting following error:

Module not accessible

The acl_a_newsletter permission is running well.

Hello,
bump.

I've done another look to the code. It seems that it is not possible to add new local permissions to phpBB3 for add ons to use them in new MCP pages. A lot of edits at least in includes/auth.php and in includes/acp/auth.php would be needed. Although I think some of the edits are not possible.

So, what's my result:
Adding of new MCP modules for Add Ons using new local permissions is not possible. The functionality have to move to the frontend of the Add On.

Hi,

Paul posted an auth.php which allows additional local permission types here:

Hello,
I think it's not MOD authors job to correct this problem. So I will remove the MCP modules from my Multiple Newsletters Add On. But I will use the ACL_xxx_TABLEs as much as possible to be ready for the future of phpBB3.x or phpBB4!

For developers and MOD authors:
You can add new local permissions to phpBB3. But the MCP can not work with them. The MCP is not able to add the pages itself by the new local permissions automatically.
