II.7.b. Registration and access levels
To register a user, you have to be logged in, and your access level must be SUPERUSER.
You have to go to /manage.html page, select Users tab, and click New user.... Then, you should enter a password or a password SHA-1 hash (recognized automatically), select access levels on each board, and optionally specify a list of IP addresses. These addresses are used to prevent the deletion of user posts by another user (accidentally or intentionally). Adter specifying all information, you have to click "Confirm". To set the same access levels for all boards, select access level at the very last row of the table and click "All" button in the first column of the row. You may also remove an existing user with the corresponding button. See the example below:
Users of different access levels have the following privileges:
- May delete own posts and files, attached to own posts. Need to enter the same password as the one entered when the post was created, or to be logged in (registration is not required).
- May edit own post files audio tags. Need to enter the same password as the one entered when the post was created, or to be logged in (registration is not required).
The same as anybody, plus the following:
- When posting with a tripcode, the
sign is attached to the post.
The same as USER, plus the following:
- Just as in case of
USER, when posting with a tripcode, the sign is attached to the post. - May edit or delete posts of users with access level lower than
MODER. - May attach files to existing posts. Applies only to posts of users with access level lower than
MODER. - May set a thread closed/opened, fixed/unfixed, bumpable/unbumpable, or move a thread to another board (need to have the
MODERaccess level on both boards). Applies only to threads of a user with access level lower thanMODER. - May delete all posts/threads (selected by IP address) of a user with access level lower than
MODER. - May access the limited version of the
/manage.htmlpage (only theBanstab is available).
The same as MODER, but may manipulate on posts/threads of users with access level MODER.
Plus the following:
- May see the IP address of any user, who made a post. NOTE: You can change (increase/decrease) access level in the configuration file.
Almost no restrictions. A superuser is a superuser on any board. A superuser may only be added with the server command only.
Superusers also have access to the full version of the /manage.html page (Users tab is available, may manage users).
