The latest release of my Pepper Roles permissions management plugin for Spiceworks is now available for download. This release officially drops support for older versions of Spiceworks (ie. 7.4). It also adds a new permissions option for the Settings module so you can restrict access to ManageEngine settings. As well, there are a couple of bug fixes, and I decided to minimize the plugin’s JavaScript code to reduce the file size and consequently speed up load times a little.
Go to Settings > Manage Apps after installing this release and double-check that you have appropriate permissions assigned to each group. If you discover any bugs in this version, post a comment below or send me an email.
Requirements
- Spiceworks Version 7.5.00063 or higher
Change Log
- Added: Backwards-compatibility with pre-Spiceworks 7.5 versions dropped (older SW versions must used Pepper Roles 1.5)
- Added: New permissions option – Settings > ManageEngine
- Fixed: Plugin JavaScript is minimized for faster loading
- Fixed: Plugin configuration sometimes does not load properly, revealing an unformatted form
- Fixed: If Cloud Services and Purchases permissions options are enabled, then Settings > Inventory > Cloud Services & Settings > Global Settings > Purchases are force-enabled by mistake

Hi.
I’ve installed the 1.8 version plugin and I don’t see ANY screen that even remotely resembles the screenshots displayed on this or the plugin download page.

Nothing is a pulldown, there are no existing users displayed

Hi Dave, this usually is simply a browser caching issue. Try clearing your browser cache (CTRL+SHIFT+DEL) and then refresh the page.
If that doesn’t work, then it is also possible another plugin you have installed is interfering with this one. Try disable other 3rd-party Spiceworks plugins to see if that resolves the problem.
If it is still not working, let me know and I’ll get some more info from you to assist in resolving the issue.
