TheocBase/TheocBase

Only those users appear in the list, that have already access to the shared TheocBase folder in your DropBox account. It is possible to assign multiple roles.

Restart TheocBase to apply the changes.

After the list of users is loaded, select in the user's row the check box of the role that should be assigned.

<strong>Administrator:</strong> Edit congregation settings and user permissions; delete cloud data

Getting Started

TheocBase uses role-based access control for users that have access to the shared data in the cloud. Roles provide a set of permissions. Thus a person assigned to a certain role is granted the set of permissions provided by that role.

By default, each user is automatically assigned to the basic <strong>Publisher</strong> role. The exception to this is the one person who shares the data file. That person is always assigned the <strong>Administrator</strong> role. It is also possible to assign the <strong>Administrator</strong> role to an additional user to assist with administrator functions.

The administrator’s role centers around maintaining and setting up the basic environment. This includes granting other users and himself any roles needed to accomplish the tasks related to that user’s assignments in the congregation.

The <strong>Administrator</strong> role does NOT inherently include all other permissions. This is in order to allow the owner of the cloud storage to work safely with the data files while limiting his access to only the necessary information. In case of a need, though, he can temporarily grant himself more roles/permissions to fix an issue.

<strong>Life and Ministry Meeting Chairman:</strong> View publishers, availabilities and midweek meeting settings; edit midweek meeting schedule; send reminders; print midweek meeting worksheets

<strong>Life and Ministry Meeting Overseer:</strong> Edit publishers, availabilities, special events, midweek meeting schedule and settings; print assignment slips

Here is the list of printing tags along with their corresponding values. The tags may be available only at certain levels e.g.:

throughout the whole content of the template [1]

within the scope of a loop [2]

or even in a nested loop [3]

A loop has a start and an end tag. These are named accordingly (<code>*_START; *_END</code>) and have a description <span class="pt_loop_description">[between brackets]</span> in the <strong>Value</strong> column that mentions also the <strong>Scope</strong> of the tags that are available. If a printing tag returns a variable, then the value is described <var class="pt_variable_description">{between curly brackets}</var>; otherwise the mentioned text appears.
