Plugin Permissions

Any idea when the stable release of s9y 1.0-beta1 will be announced, or just when the permissions for the plugins could be set?
For e.g. the changes for the permissions of the plugins will not be stored and if I set them within the db by hand, the editors can still use them, even I have given the permission to the admin only.

Hi!
About the 1.0 final, please read our blog on blog.s9y.org - it's near, but the code is already stable.
Permission changes to the plugin require you to check the checkbox on the left, then change the dropdown and then click on "Save".
Plugin permissions also do not indicate who can access plugins, but who is the owner of a plugin. Only some plugins evaulate plugin ownership to indicate if it can be configured by the owner only. HTML Nuggets for example do that.
Best regards,
Garvin

@garvinhicking
thx for the info, but this I have already tried - still not working.
I really hate it that other editors can use the static plugin or the Extended properties plugin to make some entries sticky
Mybe the developer of these plugins can do something

Hi!
Are you sure you tried? Because it works here pretty well. Most people just forget to check the checkbox.
About certain plugins: Currently it is not so easy to deactivate certain plugins. However with one linge of PHP Code you can easily disable a plugin for a user by checking on their authorid or on their userlevel.
This will definitely come in the future, but surely not for 1.0 and probably not for 1.1, as its integration needs to be well thought-of into the user interface. And a lot of plugins would need to be patched for that, of course.
Best regards,
Garvin
