Lyceum-users mailing list

[John Joseph Bachir <jjb AT ibiblio.org>]

For each blog on which a user has permissions, there is a permissions 
entry in the usermeta table.

The user_level field is, i believe, a legacy piece of the system that 
wordpress no longer utilizes and i believe is in there for the sake of 
plugin backward compatibility.

witness my lack of investigation, and general confusion, in this very old 
ticket:

<http://source.ibiblio.org/trac/lyceum/ticket/135>

But the bottom line is, there is no concept of per-blog user level. You 
can perhaps hack the plugin to store this information in the options 
table, or even better, to work with roles instead of levels.

let us know what you come up with, and/or document it on the wiki if you 
get the chance.
