Yes. With either bin/withlist or bin/config_list, you can add, change or delete any list attributes and generally destroy any list. If this isn't clear from the --help, you probably don't know enough Python to be doing this. >I should stop thinking but another question pop into my mind.

You could do this in the _setValue() method in Gui/Privacy.py, however, if you don't allow site admin cookies, I.e. if you do not have ALLOW_SITE_ADMIN_COOKIES = Yes in mm_cfg.py, you'd have to provide an input on the page for the site admin password and require it to be entered (and validate it) in order to update the attribute. The reason for this is if you don't allow site admin cookies, when you authenticate to the admin GUI with the site admin password, you get a list admin cookie for that list, so the code can't tell after the fact which password you used. Of course, you could always just display the attribute in the admin GUI and not allow changes and require the site admin to use command line tools to change it. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
