539153 - Validate plugins after upgrade (because of enhanced security)

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(support.mozilla.org :: Knowledge Base Software, task)

Description

[Marc Laporte]

All potentially unsafe plugins become "Plugin execution pending approval" (Need to visit a page for the plugins to appears on http://tiki-trunk.mozilla.com/tiki-plugins.php)

* This is a known upgrade annoyance, brought by much better security in Tiki3
* So we would need a bot to visit all page and create the, (or do manually) 

I get "You do not have permission to use this feature: tiki_p_plugin_approve" even logged as Admin.

This will, in due time, need to be done on the real data. If we do on tiki-trunk, it will be eventually lost, but we can develop procedure and/or script.

Marc, I'm not really sure what is needed here.  Can you please clarify?

We need LPH to evaluate if he can come up with a smoother upgrade path or accept the fact that we'll need to find volunteer editors to go through the pages.
