What is the purpose of this module?
The module is designed to restrict access to specific menus or models for selected users until they are explicitly unlocked via a dialog popup.
How does the lock mechanism work?
When a restricted user tries to access a locked menu or model, a popup appears asking for unlock confirmation. Unless unlocked, the background remains inaccessible.
Can I configure lock rules per user?
Yes. Admins can define which users are restricted from accessing specific models or menus using the App Access configuration.
Does the lock prevent access through browser developer tools?
The module uses visibility detection to monitor tampering attempts. If the popup is removed manually (e.g., via the dev console), it will automatically reappear unless the item is unlocked.
What happens if the user presses the browser back button?
The system checks the lock status and reopens the popup if access is still restricted, ensuring no bypass via navigation.
Can multiple sessions be handled securely?
Yes. The module manages session-based unlocking and clears sessions using a cron job or custom logic when necessary.
Is it possible to set an auto-expiry for the unlock?
Yes. You can configure session expiration intervals in minutes or other time units. A centralized cron handles all expiration's efficiently.
What if I change the configuration after unlocking?
The system will automatically reset unlock states when relevant app access settings are modified, ensuring the new rules are enforced.
