Granular administration permissions
February 13, 2012, 01:50:28 am
I would like to give a user permission to add new tags in CiviCRM, but not give them access to the other parts of the administration. Is this possible?

I've setup a Drupal role for them, but there doesn't seem a specific permission for what I'm after (only the option to give them access to the whole admin menu).

Hi

This post was never answered, which is perhaps because what was asked for can't be done.  However, it does seem very desirable that a user should be able to add and maintain tags. But that can't happen without giving the user the full Administration menu.  Is there a way they can add & update tags without all the other Admin stuff?  Comments?
