Help with TeamSpeak Permissions: Needed Delete Power Not Working as Expected

,

Hello dear TeamSpeak community,

I’m completely reconfiguring my 11-year-old TeamSpeak server due to inconsistent permissions. It’s been a long time since I last dealt with permissions, and I’m stuck on the following issue:

I have set the needed_modify_power and needed_delete_power to 100 for all standard channels. However, as an admin, I can still delete channels, even though my delete_power is only 75. I don’t understand why. How can I configure this correctly?

Additionally, regular users and guests should only be able to delete their own files, but not files from other users.

In the Lobby channel, no one should be able to delete anything. I have set the needed_delete_power to 100 here as well. The admin can still delete, despite having only 75. Regular users cannot delete, as they only have 50.

Are there any global permissions that override the needed_modify_power?

Looking forward to your responses!

Could you please provide a full permission overview?

Files deletions can not be restricted to own files.

Thank you for your answer. I have already checked this, but I am still puzzled. See attached picture. Check this video/gif:

I also currently do not know why the Admin group still can delete channels. I also tried it with my test server, and same result there.


But be aware if you change too much things in the admin group, you then would have to use a query access to get that permission if you ever decide you want to delete the channel.

So the best solution is to create a different sub Admin group and maybe grant it to a different identity, if you yourself do not want to delete those channels either.

Also using permissions higher than 75 could also sometimes cause some problems.

Hello,

I realize that. I get the same result with both the server admin group and the copy of this admin group. I would guess it’s a bug. :man_shrugging:

I believe the same behavior applies to file deletions.

Try removing the permission b_client_skip_channelgroup_permissions

I will check this and get back to you as soon as possible, thank you very much.

One question:
What is the “Skip” flag in the rights system for?
