My way to restrict a role

I run XAMPP Version: 7.2.15, PHP/7.2.15, on Win10 64Bit as my development system.

What I have done to test:

  1. I installed a new starterkit 3.2.5.
  2. I updated to Kirby 3.3.0-rc.2 (I could not download the newer rc-version).
  3. I changed the content of the existing file \index.php to:
<?php
require __DIR__ . '/kirby/bootstrap.php';
$kirby = new Kirby();
$user  = $kirby->user();
if ($user && $user->role() == 'editor') {
   $kirby = new Kirby([
       'roots' => [
           'blueprints' => __DIR__ . '/site/blueprints/bp_role_editor',
       ],
   ]);
};
echo $kirby->render();
  1. I created a new directory \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor and then a new directory \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\users.
  2. I added a new file \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\site.yml that looks like:
title: Website for Editor role
### site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\site.yml
columns:
  - width: 1/3
    sections:
      parts:
        headline: Pages for Editor role
        type: pages
        templates:
          - notes     # only this template-type is shown for this role at this menu level
        create: false # avoid new pages at this menu level
        delete: false
  - width: 2/3
    fields:
      infofield:
        type: info
        label: Info for Editor role
        text: |
          This is the panel start page for the role "editor".
  1. I added a new file \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\users\editor.yml that looks like:
title: Editor with Editor role
description: The Editor uses the panel to edit only the notes page and note pages as well as his own user fields.
permissions: # for this role, may be you want to make changes here!!!
  access:
    users: false
    settings: false
  site:
    update: false
  pages:
    delete: false
  user:
    changeRole: false
    changeName: false
    delete: false
sections: # user fields for this role itself
  meta:
    type: fields
    headline: User data
    fields:
      phone:
        label: Phone [bp_role_editor\users\editor]
        type: text
        width: 1/2
      mobile:
        label: mobile Phone
        type: text
        width: 1/2
  1. I created a new directory \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\pages and then I copied the file \site\blueprints\pages\notes.yml to \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\pages\notes.yml and the file \site\blueprints\pages\note.yml to \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\pages\note.yml.
    We can add user permissions for this role in these new files.
  2. I created a new directory \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\sections and then I copied the file\site\blueprints\sections\notes.yml to \site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\sections\notes.yml.
  3. I copied the file\site\blueprints\bp_role_editor\users\editor.yml to \site\blueprints\users\editor.yml.
    This new file is for the admins in the panel! To show this, you can make some changes (e.g. text) in the file \site\blueprints\users\editor.yml. So only in the file copy I deleted every text bp_role_editor\.
  4. I addded an admin (for me !) in the panel and then as admin I added a new user with the role editor as my test user.
  5. Now I can test this new user with the role editor and his permissions.

Notes:

  • I don’t need any routes for this.
  • Yes, I know that I have some files, I copied, for each role a second time. But the setup is simple. Maybe we can work with symbolic links for the directories in the steps 7 to 8. But that depends on the installation and its OS. Or may be we can use routes or config options for this???
    I don’t know…

Good luck!

So that nobody gets confused: The solution described by @anon77445132 is basically the same that originated from @gillesvauvarin and described here: Custom blueprint for different roles

25

So just to be shure, regarding the title of this topic, if there is a role that I want to not be allowed to see the site panel but only the about page for example, there is no way for me to make them go to about page on login ?

Maybe using the user.login.after hook that @texnixe wrote about ?

Please see: User blueprint | Kirby CMS

I just found hook user.login:after and did this in the config:

'hooks' => [
  'user.login:after' => function ( Kirby\Cms\User $user ) {
    $page = $user->pageToModify();
    if ($page->isNotEmpty()) {
      $slug = $page->slug();
      go("/panel/pages/$slug");
    }
  }
],

Thanks @texnixe
