Hide features from a role

The access matrix lets super-admins toggle individual features on or off for each role.

Where (super_admin only)

Settings → Access → grid showing roles (Member, Librarian, Admin) on one axis and features on the other

What you can toggle

• Billing access (default: Admin only)
• Analytics access (default: Admin only)
• Bulk operations (default: Admin only)
• Custom genres (default: Admin only)
• Custom topics (default: Admin only)
• Email templates (default: Admin only)
• Sidebar reorder (default: super_admin only)

How it works

• Default: each feature has a default role minimum
• Override: super-admin can extend access to a lower role
• Restrict: super-admin can hide a feature from a normally-allowed role

Example

By default, only Admins can edit email templates. To let your Librarians edit them too:

• Settings → Access → Email Templates row → toggle Librarian on
• Save

Librarians now see the Email Templates section in their sidebar.

Per-tenant

Each tenant has its own access matrix. A super-admin platform owner can have different access rules for each tenant.

Why this is super-admin only

Access decisions affect security. Letting admins grant access to themselves creates a recursive problem; keeping the matrix super_admin-only ensures only the platform owner makes those calls.
