This module provides additional permissions for finer grained access validation in managing blocks.
The following permissions are added:
- An administer blocks per enabled theme.
This enables granting a client access to managing the blocks without them beeing able to change the blocks on the admin theme. - Permissions per provider of block plugins.
This enables granting a user permission to add certain types of blocks but not system block plugins.
This module is for Drupal 8.x only.
