[dokuwiki] Re: Mass assignment of groups in user manager

Hi Gabriel,
This sounds like it would be a nice addition. I still wonder whether it would also make sense if there was an option in the user manager to be able to select a view -- view by users (as it is now), or view by groups (see which users are in which groups)... this makes the display of information more flexible.

Hi jas,

this is a nice addition, we thought about that too in the planning stage.
But we decided against it because it would have made the interface too
cluttered. 
Instead, I'm now working on an interface (unobtrusive JavaScript) to enhance
the filtering of the user list so you can paste your list of user names (or
login names) into the search field, the filtering regular expression is
generated automatically.

Greetings,

Gabriel

Hi Gabriel,

Nice addition... thanks for your work ...
I have another idea for an enhancement in the user manager. Now, you can easily create groups and assign users to those groups. However, if you have a list of users that you want to be able to add to a group, in my own opinion, it still takes too many steps. You can't do that without individually selecting the users from the user list, and if you've got a lot of users that can take some time. Your extension makes it easier, but you still need to select all the users. I would love to see a text box under each group in "Group management" that shows the users who are in that group now. Add a user to the list, and they get added to the group (if the user exists of course), or remove the user from the list, and they get removed from the group. Now, you can create groups with a simple cut and paste. If I get a request to add 16 different users to a group, I only need to create the group and paste in the user list, and I'm done.

Hi,
as promised (some months ago) - here is a patch for the 
usermanager plugin
that will add a gui to assign groups to all of the selected 
users. Hopefully
this will make its way into the next release. I'm open for 
comments and

suggestions.

BTW: Do I have to create a feature request in Flyspray for this?

Greetings,

Gabriel
