Add a permission system for admin users so you can lock down specific admins to
a narrower set of features instead of them all having omnipotent powers.
* New page: Admin Dashboard -> Admin Permissions Management
* Permissions are handled in the form of 'scopes' relevant to each feature or
action on the site. Scopes are assigned to Groups, and in turn, admin user
accounts are placed in those Groups.
* The Superusers group (scope '*') has wildcard permission to all scopes. The
permissions dashboard has a create-once action to initialize the Superusers
for the first admin who clicks on it, and places that admin in the group.
The following are the exhaustive list of permission changes on the site:
* Moderator scopes:
* Chat room (enter the room with Operator permission)
* Forums (can edit or delete user posts on the forum)
* Photo Gallery (can see all private/friends-only photos on the site
gallery or user profile pages)
* Certification photos (with nuanced sub-action permissions)
* Approve: has access to the Pending tab to act on incoming pictures
* List: can paginate thru past approved/rejected photos
* View: can bring up specific user cert photo from their profile
* The minimum requirement is Approve or else no cert photo page
will load for your admin user.
* User Actions (each action individually scoped)
* Impersonate
* Ban
* Delete
* Promote to admin
* Inner circle whitelist: no longer are admins automatically part of the
inner circle unless they have a specialized scope attached.
The AdminRequired decorator may also apply scopes on an entire admin route.
The following routes have scopes to limit them:
* Forum Admin (manage forums and their settings)
* Remove from inner circle
* Users who set their Profile Picture to "friends only" or "private" can have
their avatar be private all over the website to users who are not their
friends or not granted access.
* Users who are not your friends see a yellow placeholder avatar, and users
not granted access to a private Profile Pic sees a purple avatar.
* Admin users see these same placeholder avatars most places too (on search,
forums, comments, etc.) if the user did not friend or grant the admin. But
admins ALWAYS see it on their Profile Page directly, for ability to moderate.
* Fix marking Notifications as read: clicking the link in an unread notification
now will wait on the ajax request to finish before allowing the redirect.
* Update the FAQ
* Friends: can now see your sent requests awaiting approval too.
* Site Gallery: you may see Friends-only photos on the Gallery if you are
friends with the owner and the pic is opted-in for the Gallery.
* Site Gallery: show color coded visibility icons in card headers.
* Improve appearance of Upload Photo page.
* Update FAQ
