Hello Community, i have a short question, is it possible that kanboard creats my automatic LDAP User as Manager ? Currently, all new automatically created users are created as role “user” - it is possible that they are created as role “manager” . // Allow automatic LDAP user creation define(‘LDAP\_USER\_CREATION’, true); Thank you for your answers ---

Hello Creecros, thank you very much. i configured: // Allow automatic LDAP user creation define(‘LDAP\_USER\_CREATION’, true); //Auto Manager define(‘LDAP\_USER\_DEFAULT\_ROLE\_MANAGER’, true); Unfortunately, my automatic LDAP user creation users are still created as “users”, not as “manager” do you have any ideas? ---

Users that where already added, before changing the setting? If so, could you try adding a new user, and see what their role becomes? also, ensure that you have restarted your server before adding a new user to test it. ---

hey creecros, really thank you very much for your help. I only tested that if a new User successfully is logs on on kanboard ( LDAP credentials) , the system is automatically creating the user, but does not assume the role as manager, the user gets the role “user” i restarted my server after changing the setting. ---

might be a bug? I haven’t used ldap in ages, so I’ve never actually tested. Hopefully someone else can confirm whether it works or not.
