Users Dropdown Menu

[ryanscherler]

Does anybody know if there is a module / fieldtype to generate a dropdown menu for a specified list of users for a given 'role'. This would be handy to assign a page specifically to a user. This would be handy when using the API on an external form (e.g. a non-CMS user) could list/edit/update their related page(s).

Because users and roles are also pages, you just have to use a normal "page" fieltype for this.

When creating the field, go to the input tab, and choose user as the "template of selectable pages". Still on the input tab, insert roles=1013 on the "Custom selector to find selectable pages", where 1013 would be the ID of the given role.

Hah! - I should have realized I could select users instead of just pages in the site tree.

Thanks!

Hi, I have to reactivate this elder topic.

I'm trying to add a page selector field containing the users of a specific role as descriped above.

I also want, that the (non-admin) useres (role: editor) can asign pages to other users (role: editor) [similar to a bugtracker]. If I try select users via the page select field I get the message:

"You don't have access to list page /processwire/access/users/"

Is there a secure way to enable the selection of users to non-admin users?

Thanks for your reply!!

PS: I'm using PW 2.4.0

Use custom selector in your page field: template=user, include=all

Or rather check_access=0

Argh screw it include=all has it all...
