Manager area menu

Hi! I’ve read this post

http://bobsguides.com/revolution-permissions.html

But I don’t how to do this:

I would like to create an user (for manager area) that Can only

- show Resources and Files tree
- Add content
- Don’t show: reports, system, support menu

Can you help me??

Removing the element_tree permission from the policy will hide the Elements tree.

The best way to hide specific Top Menu items, IMO, is to give them a custom permission in System | Actions.

Right-click on the item in the Top Menu panel and select "Update Menu."

Then add your custom permission to the Access Permissions field. If there’s already a permission there, add a comma and your custom permission.

Then give that custom permission to anyone who should see the menu item. It will be hidden from the others.

Thanks for your help!

about the tree (I want to show only Resources and Files)

Do you suggest me to create a new policy and a new ACL? (only for this specific "light manager" users??)


about the menu

--
Right-click on the item in the Top Menu panel and select "Update Menu."

What does that means??

I’ve selected System-Actions.... and now?

Thanks

Yes -- a new policy without the element_tree permission.

I don’t know how else to say it. When you click on System-Actions, you’ll see two panels: "Actions", and "Top Menu."

In the Top Menu panel, right-click on the menu item you want to protect and select "Update Menu."

In the Top Menu panel, right-click on the menu item you want to protect and select "Update Menu."



Oky I select "remove items" but I’ve to do this when I’m logged with a specific manager user?? (not admin)??

I’ve to createa new policy or a new ACL for do this??


(I don’t want to delete menu items for my "manager user" but for a specific manager user that I’ve to create)

Thanks

As I said above,

1. Create a custom permission for those menu items you want to hide.
2. Add that custom permission to the policy that affects your "manager user."

Don’t "remove" or "delete" anything.
