Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

The easiest way is to edit the existing Staff, Student and Authenticated User roles. You can add new ones - you just need to make sure you assign those roles when you enrol users on courses. If making new ones, make sure you set them up so they can be assigned in courses (or whatever). It's in the - *cough* - docs.

Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

I've no idea why you are so determined to add people to system-wide roles. It's overthinking it. Add people to roles where they need to be added. Which is generally in courses.

Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

In which case modify the Authenticated user role to take these capabilities away. Your administrator is unaffected as they always have ALL capabilities. And Managers assigned at site-level (if you have any) will not be troubled by the restrictions either.

Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

Yes - that. Create a staff role and add individuals to it that require additional features. 'Allow' will always override 'unset'. It won't override 'prevent' but you have no need to set anything to prevent that I can see. Removing the required 'allows' from the authenticated user role will have the result you need.

Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

Trying to do something similar... did you ever find a permission that removes access on the Users Preferences page to hide Forum Preferences?

Re: Disabling all the optional preferences

Please keep us appraised of your progress. I also would like to lock down a user and prohibit the ability to do anything EXCEPT take a particular course where I provide the link.
