Limiting dashboard permissions on multisite

Hi,

I want to move my multi-blog site from a custom website to buddypress/multipress, and it seems to do everything I want except for the users dashboard.

I don’t trust my users at all, and I want to remove some of the permissions they have by default.

What I would like to do are things like

– prevent the user from customising the themes, (actually I am happy with some customising, I just worried that the users will make breaking changes to the theme/site itself).
– prevent the user from changing the permalinks
– Limit the number of sites they can create.
– Limit who creates groups and how many they create.
– Better spam control in general, (prevent spam posts and so forth).
– Limit/control the number of pages they can create.

In general, I just want to have more control on what they can/cannot do,

Is there already a plugin to do that kind of monitoring?

How safe is buddypress/wordpress network from ‘rogue’ users?

Thanks

FFMG

Those are very specific changes. I hardly think there is a plugin out of the box, able to apply these changes, but they are possible.

I find it safe enough.

I thought it might be the case. I was just hoping that someone had written a plugin for it already.

I’ll try and write a simple multisite admin plugin and see how how much resources it takes.

Thanks

I understand, but like I said, your requirements are very specific for your network. Good luck! =)
