Set permissions of page created automatically by module

[CaelanStewart]

Hi All,

I developed a module for ProcessWire for a project I've been working on for a School's Football Association. It's a website for them to list all of the competitions, rounds, fixtures and results etc. All of these are separated into yearly seasons, and each season is to contain a standard page structure, which the module creates. This module creates a page in the Admin for the seasons to be added from. Now, that's fine, it works, but now we're creating the client accounts with minimal permissions, it seems that only super users can access the page that was created by the module upon install.

This page is created from the module's info array, like so:

public static function getModuleInfo() {
    return [
        ...
    
        'page' => [
            'name' => 'season',
            'title' => 'Add Season',
            'permission' => 'season-add' // This did not work
        ]
    
        ...
    ];
}

What I'd like to know, is how I can set the permissions for that page, and allow non-super users to see it in the admin nav and access the page. The page created is of the template 'admin', which I tried applying permissions to for the role created by the module, but that also did not work.

The method I tried on the line with the "this did not work" comment was from the comments in the code in /wire/core/Process.php.

Page access in the backend is not handled by template access rules, but by the module's config (permission): https://processwire.com/api/ref/modules/get-module-info/

I see, it's that simple! I did look at the docs (even that page), but I missed that part. Cheers.
