[Revo] How to make totally different admin interface for a user group?

Hello, community!

Does anybody know how to make Revo admin interface totally different for a specified user group?

Say, we have two user groups: Admins and Managers. So, when an Admin logs in, he sees a default admin interface. But when a Manager logs in, he should see a totally different interface, with another design and various additional stuff, like flash image uploaders,jQuery carousels and so on.

Look forward to your advices =)

Create a new context, put your admin interface in there (via a snippet or whatever), and then just point the user to that context. TBH, that’s the best way.

You could also create a new manager theme, by copying and renaming the manager/controllers/default/ and manager/templates/default/ directories and building from that, and then doing a User Setting that sets their manager_theme to whatever the name of the theme you made.

So how do I put interface in context? SVN didn’t give much help...

Just create an admin interface like you would any MODx front-end site is what he meant.

Understood! THANKS!!!!

Anybody know the best way to point a specific user group to a specific context?

I guess they would be redirected after they login through the login snippet or something?

Any recommendations for how this would be set..

Thanks..
