Users can be assigned one or more roles. If they are
assigned to multiple roles, then Vivaldi will use the most
permissive access of the combined roles. For example, if
Mary is assigned a role that only allows View access to Form 1,
and another role that allows View, Insert, Edit to Form 1, then
Mary will have View, Insert, and Edit access to the form.
- Navigate to Security>User Roles Assignments.
- Select the 'Add' button.
- Choose a role.
- Choose a user.
- Select 'Save' to add the assignment.
Unlocking User Accounts
Users are allowed 3 consecutive failed logins before
their account is locked.
- Navigate to Security>Users.
- In this screen you can click 'Edit' and uncheck the
Account Disabled checkbox.
Allowing User Self-Registration (3.6 and higher)
You can optionally allow users who do not have accounts
with your application to self register and create their own
account.
- Navigate to Administration>Application Settings.
- Set the 'Self Registration' property to 1.
- Set the 'Self Registration Role' property to the RoleID (from ogs_role in MySQL) of the role you want to assign to new users.
- Optionally set the 'Self Registration Moderation' to 1
if you want to allow users to self-register, but want to create
the account as 'Disabled' until an administrator changes their
account status to 'Enabled'.
- If you moderate new user accounts, be sure to set the 'Self Registration Moderator Email' property so notifications can be sent when a new user registers.
- Important: If you choose not to moderate new users, there is a good possibility of automated registrations by bots on your site.
- Optionally change the 'Self Registration Message' property to a message of your choice for the top of the self registration page.
- Finally, you can embed or provide a link to yourdomain/ogs/selfregistration.php to give users access to self register.
