Simpler forum authorization #4317
Comments
One prerequisite for this is to turn off the old forums, i believe. And I think we are actually ready to do this. As for roles, we still do have forum-group specific roles (ie support team with help forum access) so we'd likely need to consider that. A table with |
cc/ @nanaya in case he can think of any edge cases or special requirements i may have missed. |
by roles I meant AuthRoles which seem to give global permissions for usergroups. to my knowledge all of this is already taken care of by OsuAuthorize so I think we can get rid of it? |
Some checks in OsuAuthorize still use old forum acl. |
This can be reconsidered now, if there is interest. Removing ACL completely would be a huge step forward. |
I wanted to look into replacing phpbb forum auth soon (as mentioned by lots of comments saying "this is temporary" etc), but I'm not sure which features are needed
a comment says that user-specific ACLs are no longer used but I don't have info beyond that. I think all i'd need is a list of the permission types still in use and whether or not "roles" are necessary anymore
