The user has Site administrator and Manager roles enabled, can access Site Setup, can access folder_contents, can edit items.
But edit-bar is missing in all sections. Only for this user.
Can you give me a hint on how to investigate this?
The problem was related to the new theme and sure it was a minor css problem. A media query for small screens with display none for edit-bar.

I have just developed a wordpress site for a client. The client wants full access but I dont want to give him access to all the work which I have done (plugins, techniques, themes options etc). How can I give a customized dashboard access to the client with hidden plugins and theme menu items.
Thanks
If you want GUI based approach and not want to handle it via functions, using the Members plugin could help
I think you would prefer to go with a plugin rather than pieces of code. You can achieve the same by using a plugin called Adminimize
Admins can activate/deactivate every part of the menu and even parts of the sub-menu. Meta fields can be administered separately for posts and pages. Certain parts of the write menu can be deactivated separately for admins or non-admins. The header of the backend is minimized and optimized to give you more space and the structure of the menu gets changed to make it more logical – this can all be done per user so each role and their resulting users can have his own settings.
I hope the above information worked for you.
In the Top navigation bar there is a button called 'Users'. I would like to hide that button from people who are not logged in to the site, so that it physically doesn't appear in the menu. Is there any way this can be done?
I am using Plone 4.
If you have not enabled user folders (site setup / security), then you don't need the "Users" folder at all. Delete it.
If you do have user folders enabled, but don't want to show the Users folder to unauthenticated users, then set the folder's state to "private", then use the share tab to give logged-in users the "Can view" role.
If you have a substantial number of site users and you wish to show/hide content based on authentication, you may wish to enable the Intranet/Extranet workflow, which will give you more sharing options.
If you are talking about the link to the "Members" folder (http://.../Members) you can just hide this folder (change it's state to private).
Or: delete it, I don't know anybody that still use it today!
If you need to keep it visibile, a new CSS rules can help:
#portaltab-Members {display: none}
One of the security measures for Wordpress is to get rid of the admin. I've tried this before by creating another user and giving them admin rights. Then I changed the 'author' of the posts that I have on the website to the new user and I removed the admin user.
Wrong move. I lost all the pages now. I had to make sure that I changed the author of the pages to the new user as well.
At least.. that's my guess.
Is there anything else that I need to do before trying again?
(I can change the author of the media.. but that's a pain to do, since you cannot do this in bulk, afaik)
Thanks!
I guess no one knows (or cares to share). I decided not to get rid of the admin, but simply give the admin a different function (not admin anymore)... and everything seems to work...
I am using Drupal 7.
I follow this link to enable profile picture of user.
Now i want to get profile picture from user at the time of registration.
How can i get this?
Any help will be appreciated.
Ideal module to do this is Reg-With-Pic
You will be given a check box at admin/config/people/accounts named "Enable user pictures on registration" and weight selection.
If you are using Content Profile module, File field would be an option.
Here is the Helper function to add default user account fields to user registration and edit form.

You might also want to use the Gravatar module to take some of the pain out of what you are suggesting. It's enough trouble to set up a profile on yet another site that you might not want to force them to configure their profile at the time of registration, especially with such things as a "user picture", unless you really want to put a damper on registrations.
Depending on the type of site you are working on, the Gravatar module might be ideal. Anyone who already has a Gravatar will have it automatically set as their user picture.

I'm currently trying to realize a second (lower) admin layer in drupal. I have made an extra section via the module of the same name for those users so they can have their own theme etc. I want to give these second or lower admins a menu in their section of the page where they can access certain admin functions like administer other users, and certain types of content etc. The biggest problem I encounter is security inconsistency, e.g. the second admin could make himself a full admin because I use drupals own core admin functions and where not able to figure out how to permanently block certain features but permit others. In this case I want to make the second admin able to create and change roles of users in lower hierarchy than he himself, but not able to change to or create real admins. This is only a part of the problem however, smaller issue is that I'm not able to keep my theme set for the second admin section without having to duplicate the existing admin views (like those for users and content) and set the duplicates to a path under my section. Any suggestions?
This would probably be best accomplished through creating a role (admin/user/roles) then defining that roles permissions (admin/user/permissions). Then just create a user(admin/user/user/create) belonging to that role, define a menu (admin/build/menu) with the links you want them to have access, then move the menu block (admin/build/block) to the region you want and then configure it for only that specific role.
There isn't exact an easy way to go about this, just a lot of permissions trial and error. I suggest you log in as user/1 in one browser and log in as the user you created with another browser and test the permissions config you've setup.
