company categories for all users

[JonnyCashCo]

Hy!

within the new version it should be possible, to add/change categories as ADMINISTRATOR and they are available for all users, so the have all the same categories.

can someone tell me, how it works?
we tried it with a client, but only the Administrator has the categories.

can these categories an only be new ones beside the defaults?

Versions are all the newest ;)

Thanks!
Jochen

Hi @JonnyCashCo ,

We added this to webapp_admin at the moment https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/webapp-tools/browse/webapp_admin

You can dump the categories with
python3 webapp_admin.py -u username --export-categories

This generate a json file that you can edit.

To import this for all users:
python3 webapp_admin.py --all-users --import-categories --file /path/to/json/file

@JonnyCashCo as @robing already mentioned, you can use webapp_admin to distribute the categories. If you want to centrally add them, you should do so in WebApp’s config.php - example here: https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KW/repos/kopano-webapp/browse/config.php.dist#157

@bhuisman
is there a possibility to make the color from this categories unchangeable?
the text is editable, but the changes are not saved!

Thanks

@JonnyCashCo

What do you mean with “the text is editable, but the changes are not saved!”
After the category is used by a user you mean?

[JonnyCashCo]

@bhuisman
sorry
yes, for the user who uses the category

the user can change the color and the name … the color is changed but the name change is not saved

@JonnyCashCo Categeory names are not retroactively changed on all items that have that category, if that is what you mean?
