Dear all,

I do not really understand the difference between the database user login and the user groups like admin, user with all resp. restricted permissions on table level.

If I use database user login, I cannot put the user into one of the user groups - the form doesn't allow mit to combine user and user group.

Please help me to understand.
Thanks,

franzrueh

These are not two different things. Database-based login is a basic form of security. User Group Permissions is the next step that allows you to set up different access rights for different user groups. The second doesn't exist without the first.
I guess you need to explain what the following means "form doesn't allow mit to combine user and user group". Maybe show us some screenshots.

In the meantime I think I have understood most parts of the security system. I have entered some users, some are "Admins" with all rights, some are "users" with restricted rights. Login works for both - interestingly a "user" cannot see the dasboard although it is checked, but has access to the other tables checked.

But one thing irritates me: After Logout as "Admin" or "user" the pages are still there an can be manipulated!!! I would have expected that after logout there is no access to any of the pages.

If you click back after logging out you still can see the page cached in the web browser however if you reload it or try to open another page it will redirect you to the login page.
Also if you use 'Remember me' option you can be logged back in automatically.
In either case - if you encounter some unusual behaviour you should post project to Demo Account and contact support directly.
