This documentation is obsolete and no longer applies to the current BlueSpice version.
The interface for the Group manager is provided by the extension GroupManager. It allows adding, renaming and deleting groups.
When are groups created?
Groups can be created in the wiki for the following purposes:
- Special authorisation of a namespace: The pages in a namespace can be allocated by assigning different roles to this namespace via individual groups.
- Special authorisation of a page: The PageAcess extension can be used to restrict reading rights on an individual page to certain groups.
- Workflows: Workflow tasks can be assigned to user groups.
Functionality
Users with the right groupmanager-viewspecialpage (in roles: admin, maintenanceadmin, accountmanager) can access the page Special:GroupManager in the menu Global actions > Administration> Groups.
An administrator can go to Global actions > Management > Group manager. This opens the page Special:GroupManager.
The group manager has the following features:
- Viewing groups: All existing groups in the wiki are listed.
- Creating new groups: Clicking on the "plus" button opens a dialog for adding a new group.
- Renaming groups: A group can be renamed by selecting it and then clicking the wrench icon. System groups and groups declared by other extensions cannot be renamed.
- Deleting a group: A group can be deleted by selecting it and then clicking the "x" button. System groups cannot be deleted.
Assigning roles and users to groups
- To assign users to groups, use the User manager.
- To assign roles (permissions) to groups, use the Permission manager.
