I think this is kind of a bigger problem - only superlibrarians can currently edit help files. Of course, editing help files comes with its own set of problems, as any changes made will be overwritten when updating. A fix could be to add a permission to edit help files. Hi Jonathan, that would probably be the cleanest option. - Right now it's limited to the superlibrarian, but the code seems like it intended something else? The only way to solve this, is to have a specific permission and, of course, an overlay help file so it is not overwritten on update. Bug 18483 - "Customised help: Enhance staff client with news based, easily editable help system" adds two new user permissions: edit_news and edit_help |
