Tom. Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I know there is modules out there for this. However I would love to see it in the core and more integrated. I really believe in the a clean user interface for clients. At the moment in this current project, the interface is really clean and it's easy to know where all the content needs to be and how to add it using the PageTree. However, I'm adding a few new things such as a login page, that will not be ever used by a particular role. It's purely there to create the URL "/login/" and have that link up the login.php. For example how the 404Page works currently. It would be nice to be able to hide this from them so they don't get confused with it being there. I know this is a small trivial thing, but I imagine a few people would like this, for example if they had a settings page. They may not want that shown in the page tree for moderators and only for administrators. I've seen modules that hide pages that are uneditable, however all my top-level pages are uneditable. I've seen it done by user, however this will need to be by group. All I can imagine it being under Settings -> Who can access this page? as Settings -> Who can view this page in tree? and have tickbox groups, append to children that don't have their own permissions. All that good stuff What do you guys think? Am I being silly and this is already available? I feel like the permissions system is so good, it might be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I think this: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/1176-hiding-uneditable-pages-from-users/?p=84916 is currently the best option for hiding specific pages from the admin tree, but I do agree that something better integrated in the core would be very useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Gretsky Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 This topic has been brought up several times (a couple of them by myself ). This "little" thing could help so much in building variants of admin for different roles! I really hope that the extended permissions part of this plan will somehow deal with the issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostKobrakai Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 No problem. Nobody here expects people to keep track of everything, especially if it's not a topic in the forums. I just included it because it mentions the tech. difficulties around the feature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom. Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 I've also realised that this should be in Wishlist, not FAQs. Still learning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
