Here's a wish list item...

With many users and changing section access it is necessary to keep track of who has access to what. Every year I have large staff turnover and it is more than a notion to hunt down and change the section access. Need to use a secondary source to keep track.

Would be very helpful to have a list of sections and ability to see all those users that have access thereto.

Hi there

I think the CSV Export plugin may do this for you. I'll take a look and see if it'll work.

Hi Markr, 

You can generate a list of sections and the users who have access to this with this MySQL query:

SELECT al.tableName, a.username, a.email, al.accessLevel, al.maxRecords  FROM cms__accesslist al
  JOIN cms_accounts a ON a.num = al.userNum
 WHERE al.accessLevel > 0
 ORDER BY tableName, username

Just replace "cms_" with your MySQL table prefix if you've set it to something else.

And you could run that with one of these plugins: 

Hope that helps!
