Description Ronelle Landy 2012-03-16 15:03:31 UTC 
Description of problem:

For a non-admin user, who does not have permissions to change settings, the Settings tab appears blank... the 'Settings' heading and nothing else. (see attached screenshot)

Since Conductor knows what permissions/roles each user has, if a user cannot change any settings, it would be useful to see a message similar to the "Global Role Grants" telling the user that this action requires permissions they do not have currently.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in as a non-admin user with minimal permissions
2. Click on Administer -> Settings
3. See tab with 'Settings' heading and blank body

Yes, the  code that renders the 'settings' tab should only display for users that have permissions to access the page (effectively the 'Administrator' role, but we don't test that way. "if check_privilege(Privilege::MODIFY)" should be added to the view code that renders the tab -- i.e. MODIFY permissions on the site-wide permissions placeholder, which is only granted to the site-wide Administrator role.
