User list showing users for all sites

Mark Elliott asked on August 11, 2015 23:10

Is there a way when looking at the list of users to have the list only show the users for the current site. We are rolling out several sites under Kentico and when I view the list of users it shows all the users regardless of what site they belong to. I don't want the administrators for the individual sites to see the users on the other sites.

By default I believe it shows users for all sites regardless. It would be very easy to create a clone of that user list and create a filtered list based on that users current site ID. You can do this in the Modules app. Set permissions to the visibility of the "global" users app and create another for your site specific app.

Mark,

You should be able to find them under Sites -> Edit particular site -> Assigned objects -> Users.

But this works only for Kentico 8 or later.

Hope this helps.

Hi Mark,

Are you using version 8.2? If yes, could you please apply hotfix number 23? That should fix the issue.

Best regards, Roman Konicek

Thanks for all your responses. After some further digging I came across the solution to our needs. I created a new role of site administrator for the given site and then for that role under Default Dashboard I added the Users application - as opposed to the Users (global) application which was what was visible before. This only lists users for the current site which is exactly what we need. I do think having two different Users applications is a bit confusing, especially since on the Dashboard the global one isnt named global. If you are looking at the list of users in the interface at the top it says {SiteName} | Users which would lead one to believe that they should be looking at a list of users for that site.

Thanks again for the responses, they did get me thinking in the right direction.
