Overview of Trust Level Possibilities
SteveRueck is looking for an overview of the possibilities for each trust level in Discourse, taking into account custom settings changes. JammyDodger shares a link to a general guide, but SteveRueck needs a more tailored solution.
JammyDodger suggests using the Data Explorer to create a custom report, but SteveRueck finds this option a bit involved.
Tris20 recommends using the “Only show overridden” feature to view changed settings, which SteveRueck finds helpful.
not-ethan shares a link to a default trust level permissions table, which SteveRueck finds to be exactly what they were looking for. They plan to copy the table and include their custom changes.
Hello there,
I am currently in the move from phpBB to discourse and trying to understand all the new possibilities.
Is there any overview which trustlevel has which possibilities in compare to the other trust levels including my changes in the settings?
Honestly I do not know exactly what the users are able to to or not when they where promoted to a new trust level. I want to give them the right infos.
I hope I discribed it understandable. My English isn’t that perfect. 
Is this any use?
Thx. That is a good start. But I have changed some things in the settings here and there. So what I am looking for is this overview from the blogpost but in consideration with my changes. So I have a list what exactly which trust level can or can’t do.
I’m afraid I don’t know what changes you’ve made?
Ah, I think I see. You’re hoping for some kind of ‘auto-generated trust level abilities report’ from the dashboard. I don’t know of one ready-made, but you may be able to create one in the data explorer? It may be more work than just amending the default list with your changes though.
Exactly.
Sounds good. I will have a look into it. Thx.
You might find “Only show overridden” helpful. When active it shows only the settings which you have actually changed.
In the example below, it shows that I have changed the default trust level.
This might helps a lot. Thank you.
And if you want a table of the default perms take a look at this topic.
Great. That is what I was looking for. I will copy that and include my changes.
Thank you.
