Hi Christopher,

Le 14/06/11 15:45, christopher pax a écrit : For one of my lists a owner has requested that they be able to customize messages like subscribe message, or welcome message.
Normally we do not allow this.
How can I enable for just one list?

I know it has something to do with edit_list.conf...
Bingo. ;)

You can add, in edit_list.conf. Some entries stating explicitely what files a user can edit.
For example, if you have the following line in the config:

welcome.tt2        owner,privileged_owner        write

Then the owners and privileged owners can edit the welcome messages.

What's dumb is that it is not explicit in the web interface : In the "Customizing" tab, you will always have the full list of files you can edit with the "edit" button next to them, Even if you won't be able to really edit them. You will just be displayed an error message if you try to click on the "edit" button.

It is not that bad, as you can edit the template for the list and simply remove the entries corresponding to the files for which you don't want to let the users edit.
Not sure that the sentence above is very English...

Regards,

David
