Managing Dictionary permissions

Control whether Dictionary management is restricted to administrators in the Web GUI. Even if only administrators can create and edit Dictionaries, once Dictionaries are created, they are available to all users (even to those without the Dictionary management permission).

Before you begin

You need to have an ETS administrator user account to access the following operations.

Procedure

  1. Launch the Web GUI.
  2. Log in using an ETS administrator account.
  3. Navigate to Manage > Settings > Dictionaries.
  4. Select Only admin users can manage dictionaries to restrict the Dictionaries GUI to admin users only.

Results

The Dictionaries will no longer show as a menu item for basic user accounts in the Web GUI, which mean basic users will not be able to add, view, edit, or delete Dictionaries. Users will still be able to choose existing Dictionaries when they are translating in the Web GUI.
