Module: Demo_lock

Submitted by skiquel on Wed, 08/20/2008 - 5:40pm

The demo module is a useful thing. I wanted a bit more, including support for giving admin access (like theme access) while still keeping hands off the other settings.

For extra security with demos where you want to create a user with admin access, we can use the hook_menu_alter(). Thanks go to my mentor Dmitri for his insight on this.

My usage

  • Install demo module
  • Create new 'bypass demo jail' role
  • Give 'bypass demo jail' permission to yourself and trusted people
  • Create a new role for someone with high permissions you want to lock out of certain admin areas. I used "Jailed admin"
  • Give users the role. (I made an "admin" user with "Jailed admin"), he had about every permission except change username, edit username, edit permissions, and of course bypass demo jail.
