TYPO3 user permissions: "read-only" Extension mananger and Templates module

0

Hi, I'm looking for a way to set user permissions in the TYPO3 backend (Version 4.5.25 LTS in this special case) as follows:

  • User should be able to see the modules "Extension Manager" and "Template"

  • he is not allowed to edit the Templates, only read them (for evaluation or training purpose)

  • he is not allowed to un/install extensions, languages etc, but read the extension list and the extensions informations provided in the list of installed extension.

Is this possible somehow? I know you can't restrict admin users like that. Is it possible to extend normal BE users like that? Or is there another way?

Thanks in advance!

This is not possible unless you create an extension for this that hooks into the access right evaluation.

For your usecase, I recommend to put all TypoScript templates into files and give the user read only access to the filesystem.

You can also ship all templates inside an extension, then you just need to share the typo3conf/folder.
