Expanded Idea Permissions

Ideas should have the same permission options as other categories: 

  • Visibile
  • Create Topics
  • Create Replies

And questions like this show use cases for also a permission around who can vote. 

I can imagine use cases where a community might want to limit who can vote on ideas: 

  • Excluding staff users from voting
  • Excluding staff/partners, just customers
  • Excluding prospects

Came here to add this idea, but looks like I already have. We haven’t used Ideation in a few years, but have use cases that could bring us back in that direction… but we’d want to start with staff only posts that others could vote on and reply to (not create anew). 

Why are permissions for Ideation different from community categories that allow who can see/create/reply?

Hi ​@DannyPancratz thank you for your feedback! 

 

This is a valid use case and we will consider it when working on Ideation and Product Updates permissions later this year.

We’re planning to add the Visibility, Create Topic, Create Reply permissions to the Ideation and PU modules - and we will also assess the possibility of conditioning Voting permissions based on roles.
