Admin Interface: Users

[mdawaffe]

We should probably just show email addresses if administrator (moderator?) or above.

User creation from admin ( http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/97 )

User deletion, blocking, bozoing from admin.

Plugin which allows admins to add users from the admin section.

http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/29

1) Email is now shown

2) Will post patch for this

3) This could probably be added in the bozo plugin once the patch in #1202 is applied.

Patch adds a new page under menu Users.
Two questions:
1) Line #139 in user-new.php, I think the CSS rules should be more general when it comes to styling forms
2) Line #67 in user-new.php, to the 'user_login' field will be assigned id #user-login and the profile-edit javascript code will ignore it. A solution would be to rewrite profile-edit to use #user-login and also rename the other usages of #user_login in profile-edit.php.

forgot to use svn add before

Replying to sushkov:
I tested your patch, it works good. Just a request - please add user edit feature within it, like if it is ?request=edit&id=1 in the URL, then it fetches user 1 details and display them so that the admin can edit them.

1) Line #139 in user-new.php, I think the CSS rules should be more general when it comes to styling forms

You can have two classes like class="settings another_class".

2) Line #67 in user-new.php, to the 'user_login' field will be assigned id #user-login and the profile-edit javascript code will ignore it. A solution would be to rewrite profile-edit to use #user-login and also rename the other usages of #user_login in profile-edit.php.

You can do that and include it in the patch.

Related: #1213 (and I think it should be done in conjunction with the current patch posted by sushvok).

Maybe 1.2 - with mass user administration (#960)

Weird, I didn't get any emails.

Anyway,
I'll take a look. Thanks for suggestion GautamGupta?.

We may have this in 1.1 if suchkov posts a new patch with necessary edits.

Added edit functionality, integrated with users.php
Fixed password meter with a hack, tested on 0.1 branch.

Take two.

Patch needs some work to prevent users from nerfing themselves. In this current patch, a user can demote themselves from keymaster and change their password to resulting in no ability to access the website or administrate it.

Started moving things over from functions.bb-tempate.php to prevent a lot of these scenarios.

Good patch to start from though! Will repatch when finished for further testing.

Oops forgot formatting... Can set your password to 'an empty string'

jjj - First Pass

Takes suchikov's patch and adds some sanity checks for the above comments.

I noticed some UX issues with this in its current form:

It works differently than WordPress does, in that there is no "Your Profile" option.
Editing a user highlights the 'Add User' option in the admin top level menu, instead of just 'Users'.

@jjj thanks for security improvements.
About UX issue, maybe we can just rename Add New to Manage or something more generic.

What about Your Profile, I think that's not the case in bbPress, since an oridinary user will have nothing to do with bb-admin, so it should be kept outside and current profile management for simple users is done ok in bbPress.

Fixed in [2578]. Deletion part can be handled in #960.
