The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Widerski, Betty" <address@concealed>]

Hi –

 

I want to grant privileged owners the ability to edit send scenari in lists they create. These are IT Support techs who will need to edit a list’s send scenario to add the name of another list whose subscribers will be allowed to post to the new list but will not themselves be subscribers.

 

Looking for an answer I found this archived thread from 2011, which stated that the behavior is hard-coded but could be modified by changing code in web_tt2/edit_list_request.tt2 and in wwsympa.fcgi.

 

However, in the more current version we have installed (6.2.62) there is no mention of dump_scenario html access in edit_list_request.tt2. I do see that dump_scenario is still referenced in wwsympa.fcgi in several places. I’m guessing from the old thread’s info that I’d need to change

 

'dump_scenario'            => ['listmaster'],

To

'dump_scenario'            => ['privileged_owner', 'listmaster'],

 

But what about the action_type definition?

'dump_scenario'     => 'admin',

 

Is wwsympa.fcgi now what totally controls scenari source access, or is there someplace else I’d also need to tweak where the former edit_list_request.tt2 code went?

 

Thanks

Betty
