User roles.pl

EPrints 3 Reference: Directory Structure - Metadata Fields - Repository Configuration - XML Config Files - XML Export Format - EPrints data structure - Core API - Data Objects

Back to cfg.d

user_roles.pl controls various aspects of what a user can do in eprints. By default there are 4 categories of user: Administrator, Editor, User, and minimal User. user_roles.pl controls what each class of user can do. You can also make your own classes of user in this file.

This is a full list of privileges defined in EPrints 3.3.15. They are just strings so you create your own when you create a role in user roles.pl
