Hi Anastasia, The theme doesn't currently have any knowledge of whether the user is an admin user or not. At Yale, for the rare times that we need to use admin-only UI features, we use the old preferences channel. We never built in the administrative controls for modifying channel/column/tab permissions, so admins would currently need to use the built-in preferences channel to lock and unlock channels anyway. I wouldn't think this should come up often though, since locked channels are supposed to be at the top of the column? Eventually, it'd be great to have all the functionality of the preferences channel imported into the AJAX UI, but up to this point I've focused more on the end-user experience, since that functionality is used far more.
At this point, I've written all the code that should be necessary to create the inital JSON data arrays. I haven't written all the code to update these arrays after items are dragged. To do this, I need a better idea of exactly what data the reorderer will return and how it will call the portal's javascript method on drag completion. Are you guys far enough along now that you might be able to give me a sample of how this part will work? - Jen On Jan 14, 2008 12:44 PM, Anastasia Cheetham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Jen, can the Reorderer assume that the JSON object will take into > account varying permissions between classes of users (e.g. that admins > can move locked portlets and regular users cannot)? > -- You are currently subscribed to uportal-dev@lists.ja-sig.org as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/uportal-dev
