How can I set up the admins or manager group with the ability to Lock a Thread? I don't wish to keep two log books.

With
allow <command> = <user list>
deny <command> = <user list>
you can prevent certain users to use certain commands (like delete a message). If you only allow admins to issue the "edit" command, that would in principle do it, but then normal users cannot edit their entries any more. Unfortunately this command cannot be restricted to certain attributes, like the thread "status". So I guess what you want is not exactly possible with the current implementation.

Thanks for the reply. I was looking for a way to stop replies to a runaway thread. Was wondering why the elog system has a "Locked by" attribute, but no way to set it.

That's a different meaning. The "Locked by" flag gets set when one user edits an entry. During the editing the entry gets "locked", which means that no one else can change it during that time. This should prevent one person to overwrite the edits of another if they are editing the same entry at the same time. Your "locking" means the locking of threads, which elog doe not "understand", it's just your definition of an attribute in your logbook. |
