Granting and revoking permissions

Account & Settings — Weddinguru Help

Permissions control which parts of Weddinguru a standard user can access. Each permission is a named key — you grant or revoke them individually per user from the Permissions tab on their user record.

Overview

Admin users always have full access and are not subject to permission checks. Standard users have no special access by default — every section they need must be explicitly granted. If a permission is not granted, the section is hidden from the user's navigation entirely.

Granting permissions

  1. Go to Venue Management (or Settings) → Users.
  2. Click the user's name to open their record.
  3. Open the Permissions tab.
  4. Tick the boxes for the permissions you want to grant.
  5. Save changes.

Changes take effect the next time the user loads a page or logs in.

Core permissions

These permissions control access to the main sections of Weddinguru:

Module permissions

Each wedding module has a corresponding permission in the format module.{module_id}.access. For example:

  • module.food.access — Food & Catering module
  • module.drinks.access — Drinks module
  • module.guest_list.access — Guest List module
  • module.music.access — Music module
  • module.order_of_day.access — Order of the Day module
  • module.venue_hire.access — Venue Hire module
  • module.suppliers.access — Suppliers module
  • module.floristry.access — Floristry module
  • module.venue_styling.access — Venue Styling module
  • module.documents.access — Documents module

Module permissions appear in the Permissions tab alongside the core permissions once the module is loaded. A standard user without a module permission cannot open that module on any wedding.

Revoking permissions

To remove a permission, return to the user's Permissions tab, untick the relevant boxes, and save. The user will lose access to that section immediately on their next page load.
