Goplan update

Posted on October 25, 2006 No Comments

Oops, it appears I missed some key features in the Goplan overview that I posted this weekend. In particular, I hadn’t even found the users/roles stuff! Oops. Fortunately, a member of the Goplan Team spotted my post and my errors and replied. [reprinted with permission]

“It took me a while to realize that there are no user roles in this app. Every user has the same permissions. In one way that seems rather liberating. In other respects it may be rather terrifying!”

Well, in fact, permission management is present on Goplan and it’s a really important feature. You can have profiles with a different set of permissions and change users’ profiles to suit your needs (i.e: A “costumer” profile could be created with permission to only post new tickets and talk on the chat - without creating chatrooms). We’re currently improving our permissions/profiles system and this new version will be available when Goplan will publicly launch.

Currently, you can create, edit and delete profiles on the Project Dashboard > Project settings and change users’ profiles on Project Dashboard > User list. These features will be replaced to where they fit better and Goplan’s users would find them more easily.

Seriously, I’m blushing. Thanks so much for dropping by and letting me know where I completely missed the boat!
