The page where a user changes their own password and the one where an
administrator sets a user's password shared an old card: a horizontal
form, a blue Cancel and a green Change. The administrator's had Django's
"Password-based authentication: Enabled/Disabled" with a paragraph about
other backends, and its password fields stayed while Disabled was chosen.
Both pages now have the user and group forms' layout, each its own
template. The administrator chooses how the user signs in, With a
password or Without a password (such as LDAP), and the password fields
and "must change it" show only with a password; Cancel goes back to the
user. A user's own page says that their other sessions end, or, when
they must change it, that they choose one before going on, without a
Cancel. A refused password is said at its field only, without the
general "Wrong Data Provided". The section styles of these forms move
into webvirtcloud.css.
The create and edit pages of a user had one form for both, ordered for
editing: permissions first, the name and password folded below them and
the quota folded and closed at the end; a new user's name came last.
Both pages now go Account (name, password, may sign in), Role, Quota,
then Groups and permissions, each section with what it is for beside its
fields. Template editor and Superuser become one Role choice with User:
choosing Superuser hides the quota and permissions, which a superuser
does not need (no quota check applies, every permission is theirs); it
keeps the is_staff it had. The quota is always open: each limit takes a
number from 0, or No limit, which is kept as -1 as before; memory is
entered in GiB and kept in MiB, shown exactly so saving a user again
changes nothing. The button says Create user or Save changes.
The Users, Groups and Removed VMs pages were bare tables: rows of
coloured icon buttons without words, five columns of small checks for
a user's role and permissions, dates broken over three lines and a
lone "+" for a new entry. The owner chose a directory layout from three
rendered options; it follows the host pages' cards:
- Each list is a card with its count and search in the header and one
list-group item per entry, which stacks on a phone without scrolling.
- A user shows their role as a badge (Superuser, Template editor) or
"User", Blocked as a red badge, their groups, a granted clone
permission and live API tokens, and the last login on one line;
role and status are searchable. Edit is the visible action, the menu
holds View profile, Block or Unblock and Delete; Block and Delete
are disabled on one's own account, which the server refuses anyway.
- A group shows its member and permission counts; its name opens it.
The page's title said "Users".
- A removed VM shows its UUID, the host it left, its owners and when
the record was made and expires.
- Logs keep their table in a card, the server search in its header,
the count of matching rows, Done and Failed as badges, and a message
column wide enough to read on a phone.
The user form was one long column of horizontal fields. The owner
rejected three boxed layouts and chose one led by what the user may
do: the Active switch, Template editor and Superuser as two cards,
groups as chips, the user's own permissions as switches each saying
what it allows, then the name and password and the quota folded into
details whose summaries tell their values (-1 as "any"); they open on
a new user and on an error inside them. A refused group or permission
is said beside its field. The group form follows it: the name, what
its members may do, its members as chips. Cancel goes back to the
list instead of the browser history.
- The administrator's password form took "password-based
authentication: Disabled" with "must change it at the next login":
the change form asks for the old password, which the user then never
had, so they could not get past it. That combination is refused, and
an administrator cannot disable their own password.
- A user who must change the password could still use the API with
their tokens. A token is now refused until they change it, as the
pages are.
The administrator's password form has "The user must change it at their
next login". With it, the user is sent to the change form until they
choose their own, as the generated admin password already does.
- An administrator could block, delete or demote (unset Active or
Superuser on) their own account, and with it the last one, leaving the
panel without anyone to undo it. These are now refused.
- The user form showed "No password set." for users who have one: its
password field never read the user's password. Its "Set password"
link went to ../password/, a page this panel does not have. The form
now says whether a password is set and links the page that sets it.
- "Staff status" said "can log into this admin site"; here it lets a
user change and delete the template VMs given to them, and is now
called Template editor.
- A quota of 0 counted as no limit, like -1, so a user's quota could not
be taken away. Now -1 has no limit and 0 allows none; the help says
so, and the labels give the units: memory in MiB, disk in GiB.
- A user's page for a user that does not exist answered with a server
error instead of not found.
- The user list said "None" for a user who never logged in; it says
"never", and dates fit their column.
- The password form's labels no longer break mid-word.
