Hello, I'd like to allow a user to do all things to his MTOS4 installation, except creating new blogs, and except changing the storage path. But when I activate "blog administration", the user also gains "create blog" rights. A distinct right to change the file system path does not appear to be available. This is MTOS 4.261.
What gives?

In system view, go to the Users management screen, open Roles and create a new role with the permissions you want.
Thanks for the idea, but unfortunately, it doesn't solve the problem. I can't specify the specific rights I want. I created a role which has all rights except for "Blog administrator" and "Set publishing paths". Then I assigned that role to a user, logged out as administrator, and logged in as that user. The user still cannot import or export his blog, nor can he create a backup or restore one. The reason is that there are no separate rights for these activities that I could assign to a role.
Now I need to figure out how to create such more fine-grained permissions that I can subsequently assign to roles.
