[8:19:55 PM] Marie: Hrm. Thoughts: specific urls to deal with admin stuff, or allow actions based on "user level"? [8:20:34 PM] Jose: Examples? [8:21:09 PM] Jose: Or do you mean analogously a "admin panel" [8:21:16 PM] Jose: That admins have to go to [8:21:17 PM] Marie: Well, for instance, "characters", which would list characters. If you're an ST, you could probably also filter out specific characters. [8:22:02 PM] Marie: Yeah, that's what I'm trying to figure out. Going to "admin" for doing ST stuff, or being able to do it in normal views. [8:22:04 PM] Jose: I am a fan of putting a barrier between user functions and admin functons [8:22:24 PM] Jose: Keeps me from doing accidental stupid stiff [8:22:28 PM] Jose: Stuff [8:22:31 PM] Marie: True. [8:22:54 PM] Jose: That and I hate trying to mentally sort out my crap [8:23:16 PM] Jose: Now, some specific functions may be ok at user level [8:23:27 PM] Jose: Like die roller [8:23:35 PM] Marie: Agreed. Also, I will be coding in so that you can't touch your own sheet/etc. [8:24:04 PM] Jose: But overall I'd use a different URL to wake up admins to the role they are accessing [8:24:23 PM] Marie: Yeah, makes a lot of sense. [8:24:42 PM] Marie: Maybe even go with a subtly different colour scheme. [8:24:52 PM] Jose: Now, I would , to be snazzy add a setting to allow an at user to set which role is default But that is a bell and whistle [8:25:04 PM] Jose: An st user* [8:25:23 PM] Marie: Yeah, I can see that. "I only want to access normal user roles today" [8:25:43 PM] Jose: For example for ppl like me who mostly at and rarely play [8:26:04 PM] Marie: Quick enough to change default role in some way. [8:27:00 PM] Marie: I still like the idea of ST users that's slightly different from normal users, but considering I ended up needing to code a connection between the two it might be better to just promote 'em and add more info for when they're a user =) [8:27:16 PM] Marie: Thoughts of being able to have "circles" and such coded in? [8:27:59 PM] Marie: Something to not be too difficult to change, but in particular for STs it should not be too simple, since we may want to stop people from doing stuff for their circle. [8:28:07 PM] Jose: It'd make psting a loot easier when integrated with accecible public chat logs [8:28:24 PM] Marie: Very true. [8:28:34 PM] Marie: And yeah, I want public chat logs in some way.
