Excluding Special Users from Posting Restrictions

Sun, 04 Jul 2021 17:44:44 +0000

Is there a good way we can allow special users (Editors, Moderators, Admins) to do posting overriding the site settings like minimum post length etc?

When I add a special user the css for the special user (editor) becomes strange like a message? How to solve this?

It seems that it is using this css:

#level .qa-form-wide-static a {
   background-color: #27ae60;
   background-image: url('images/icons/mail-white.png');
   background-repeat: no-repeat;
   background-position: 5px center;
   padding: 2px 5px 2px 25px;
   border: 1px solid #1e8449;
   display: inline-block;
   color: #fff;
}
#level .qa-form-wide-static a:hover, #level .qa-form-wide-static a:focus {
   background-color: #2ecc71;
   background-image: url('images/icons/mail-white.png');
   border: 1px solid #25a25a;
   color: #fff;
   text-decoration: none;
}

However, this should only be used by the message field.

Allowing only one specific user to edit answers and comments

Sat, 08 Nov 2014 06:19:15 +0000

Hi everyone, I have a special case where only one specific user should (next to the admin) get the right to edit all answers and posts. But he should not get admin rights.

I have already used all available rangs from Editor, Moderator, etc. He should stay moderator together with some other users.

The way I have to go now is to change the core to permit his userid to edit A and C.

How I am doing it:

qa-app-users.php

After line:

$error=qa_permit_error($permitoption, $userid, qa_get_logged_in_level(), $flags);

I added:

        if($userid==123 && $error == 'level') {
           return false;
       }

because a level error would be thrown otherwise.

Any other idea how to solve this?

Thanks,
Kai
