Update Permissions Reminder
===========================

[](#update-permissions-reminder)

A Craft CMS 5 plugin that reminds admins to review and update user group permissions whenever the schema changes in a way that introduces new permissions.

When you add a new section, entry type, global set, asset volume, category group, user group, or install a plugin, Craft does **not** automatically grant the new permissions to your existing user groups. It's easy to ship a change and forget that your editors now can't see the content you just built. This plugin closes that gap with a gentle, dismissible reminder.

What it does
------------

[](#what-it-does)

- Watches for schema changes that add new permissions.
- Shows a **sticky bar** at the bottom of the control panel for admins, and/or a **modal** listing every outstanding change.
- Adds a **Permission Reminders** control panel section listing all pending reminders, each individually dismissible.
- Links straight to the user permission settings so you can act immediately.

Reminders are only shown to admins, since only admins can edit permissions.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- Craft CMS 5.0.0 or later
- PHP 8.2 or later

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

From your project directory:

```
composer require justinholtweb/craft-update-permissions-reminder
php craft plugin/install update-permissions-reminder
```

Or install from the Plugin Store / Settings → Plugins in the control panel.

Settings
--------

[](#settings)

Settings → Plugins → Update Permissions Reminder:

- **Show sticky reminder bar** — toggle the bottom bar.
- **Show reminder modal** — toggle the details modal.
- **Watched changes** — choose which of the following trigger reminders: sections, entry types, global sets, asset volumes, category groups, user groups, and installed plugins.

How it works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

The plugin listens to Craft's `afterSave` events for the relevant schema objects and records a reminder when a new one is created. Each reminder is stored in `updatepermissionsreminder_reminders` and cleared when an admin dismisses it.
