add user api ignores admin true parameter in body

I think BoardAdmin is at Boards collections, and Wekan Admin is at Users collection

and with wekan/find.sh it's possible to search like ./find.sh isBoardAdmin

I do not see boardadmin in boards collections

looking at all the records for boards

YET

the owner does have that abaility

well, probably I then remember wrong

not saying thta , I just do not see that magical attribute

anyway, I did test role API, and it did not set normal user to BoardAdmin

so there is something broken

https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/REST-API-Role

So I'll look at wekan/models/boards.js

so question

If I create a board admin attribute

its would be a string or an array (multiple board admins)

its would be a standard key at the top level

OR it would be an attribute per member like isAdmin

I did not see any of this in the api doc nor in the mongo collections, so if you tell me where it goes, I am good. Whether the tools work or not is not an issue as long as I know the mongo format and if its populated correctly the GUI does what it is suppose to do

thanks

Hello good Morning. Just a quick one. I do not need you to fix wekan code. At the moment I just need to know when I have to set boardadmin in mongo to enable a particular user to be able to see the icons that archive and eventually permit you to delete a board. I cannot find that key anywhere in the mongo collections I have looked but obviously the owner has something set somewhere. If you can point me to that collection I can make the change without you recoding at this time. If board admin is not the correct key, I understand. If the wekan GUI drivers are ignoring mongos correct key values, I understand. But if some attribute just needs to be set in a mongo collection, that is easy for me to do. THanks as always :)

I did find under users collection that the second users does not have an isAdmin key at all

will try that next I guess

ok more info. I added the the second user an isAdmin key in collection users. The appranet owner had this key and this additional member did not, I set the value to the key to be true

so now the icons when you roll over are now visible on the second member including the icon for archiving

when you click the archive icon the board disappears. If you go to the archive tabe nothing is inside with this user can see. So you can archive a board but no permissions to deleted the archive board
