The feature to be able to have several Super Users is becoming more important, and many users have requested it in the forums and in #2589

Tasks:

  • Create superAdmin permission. The superAdmin permission is equivalent to the currently "superUser" in terms of power.
  • The user stored in the config file has always superAdmin permission.
  • Code: change all calls to checkUserIsSuperUser to: checkUserHasSuperAdmin permissions, setUserIsSuperUser becomes setUserHasSuperAdmin, checkUserIsSuperUserOrTheUser -> checkUserIsTheUserOrHasSuperAdmin
  • Add / update unit tests

Note:

  • the Super User stored in the config file will never lose its super admin capability. But other users with SuperAdmin permission can lose it
  • The UI for setting Super Admin permission is out of scope, it is covered in #2589

current status of #2589 and #4564 and #4582

It should work so far. As discussed user role is "SuperUser" not "SuperAdmin". Once a superUser role is set you "lose" all previous custom access because you gain permission to everything anyway. Updated/Added tests, renamed methods, added UI. Also tested whether scheduled tasks still work and looks good.

Needs to be done:

  • Update documentation
  • In blog post inform about deprecated methods which will be removed in the future

I have some changes in the submodules but haven't committed them to keep it simple. It should work though but haven't tested it.
