TYPO3 extension · in live use

Roles & Rights

Detailed roles and responsibilities for large editorial teams, tailored to university structures.

The problem

In university installations that have grown over time, nobody knows any more who is allowed to do what. Rights are assigned individually, approvals happen by word of mouth, and errors only surface once they are live.

What the extension does

Features that really count in day-to-day university operations.

Role-based model

Predefined roles for departments, editorial team and administration — instead of individual rights.

User management

Assign roles to editors in bulk, centrally and traceably.

Approval workflow

Changes only go live after approval — with the four-eyes principle.

Area permissions

Access to page trees separated by faculty or institution.

Log

Who changed what and when — as a traceable audit log.

Rights templates

New institutions get a clean rights scheme straight away from a template.

AD connection

Roles can be derived from Active Directory or LDAP groups.

TYPO3 standard

Backend extensions follow established TYPO3 conventions.

What your IT team will want to know up front.
