Hello, all,
The industrious primates here at funnymonkey.com have developed a module we are calling the userplus module. This module simplifies adding large numbers of users to a site, and administering user roles. The module works in 4.6.3.
From the readme.txt:
The userplus module simplifies adding large numbers of users to a site, and assigning those users into roles. The module will be particularly useful to admins managing sites where membership requires admin approval, or where only admins can create new members.
The features of the userplus module are available to users with the "administer users" permission. So, if you can't administer users, you can't use userplus.
The userplus modules adds a new tab -- user+ -- that is visible on the admin/user page. When you click on the tab you get three options:
1. add multiple users
2. assign user roles
3. configure user+
"Add multiple users" allows you to add multiple users (I know, who'd have guessed that?). Along with username, email address and password, the administrator can also assign these new users into roles. Since all users created this way are automatically "authenticated users", there is no checkbox for that role, nor is there a checkbox for "anonymous user."
"Assign user" gives you a listing of all users on a site next to checkboxes of all roles. Using this option, you can see what users belong to what roles, and make adjustments accordingly.
"Configure user+" allows you to set the number of users that can be added at one time. It also allows you to set the number of users that will appear per page on the "Assign User" page.
DDEV is the official local development tool of Drupal. And like Drupal, DDEV depends on the support of the open source community.
