Drupal - Restrict permissions to portions of site - drupal

I'm a drupal newb and trying to figure out permission/access control. I would like to set up a user role that would allow a user modify everything under a menu block. Does anyone know of any modules or tutorials that would help out? Thanks

I think you are looking for the menu_access module.

Can Drupal 8 security tables be modified?

I need to add another layer or field to the log-in of Drupal, is that possible? Basically, I'd like to modify the Drupal security table to have that 1 field as part of the log-in credentials. I've searched the documentations and haven't found any resources that points me to my questions. I basically need to create a front-end app using Angular JS and will have an extra field for the log-in so not sure how to accomplish this.
I'd appreciate if you can point me to the right direction and what I need to do to get me started. I sincerely appreciate any help you can provide.

Altering forms from Silverstripe CMS

I'm a beginner to silverstripe and am happy for someone to just point to a relevant section of the docs if they know where I should read. I just haven't been able to find very good instruction on this.
So I have created an Enquiry form for a site I'm building, and have:
/template/Layout/EnquiryPage.ss
/mysite/code/EnquiryPage.php
/mysite/code/EnquirySubmission.php
All are working well, users can upload enquirers and they are stored in the database.
What I want however is, as an admin, to be able to see/edit/delete these forms from within a tab in the CMS. What do I need to know about to be able to do this?
Thanks
Sounds like you want a ModelAdmin.
Pro tip: Don't forget to set your canEdit(), canDelete(), etc. permission methods on your DataObject.

Can I use views_bulk_operations with the Drupal 7 core toolbar module?

I'm building a drupal site right now where I'd prefer to use views_bulk_operations to administer the standard content overview (admin/content) and user overview pages (admin/people). My trouble is that I also want to use the toolbar module (or something like it) to give my site admins the ability to easily browse to the pages generated by views_bulk_operations (admin/content2 and admin/people2). It doesn't seem possible right now. The toolbar module automatically adds pre-defined links based on a users permissions, and there doesn't appear to be a way to make any changes to those links.
Any ideas? Or, perhaps, any alternatives to the core toolbar module? Thanks!
(I asked the same question here, but thought I'd have a better chance here on stackoverflow.)
I just figured out that I can use the quickbar module to accomplish what I want.

Displaying User Relationships Module Blocks

I'm unable to display any of the User Relationships' auto-created blocks in any of my sidebars. I have tried enabling all modules and permissions I can think of, with no success. The block I'm most interested in is the block that would allow users to be invited to an existing relationship (e.g. Friend), but as I say this nor any of the other blocks display. Other Drupal blocks and custom blocks display just fine. The blocks do show up in the blocks listing, and I've tried different ways of configuring them. Any help, or even confirmation that someone has been able to do this with the latest stable versions of Drupal and the User Relationships module, would be appreciated. Thank you.
Sorry to trouble you, but I think I found the problem: me! I had the incorrect notion (actually hope) that the "add someone to a relationship" block would display without allowing users access to the overall user list. It turns out that the block does display if a user can select another user from the list of users. I'm sure I'm missing something, but this seems to me like a weakness of the User Relationships module. Would anyone know if the Friendslist module works similarly? Thanks again.

Customize WSAT in ASP.Net

Has anyone ever customized the website admin tool in ASP.Net? I would like to add some fields when ceating a user and keep it all in one place.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
W£as a tumbleweed :) Not sure if anyone has done this or not. I've managed to rip out the table sthat are not used and create a few views in MVC to allow Intranet\Internet MVC applications, It's working well.
If anyone requires anything like this I'm happy to help.
