    This is more than a nuisance. It's a real problem.

    This is an even bigger issue now. Before being on Blackbaud Hosting, the only things that showed up on the Plugins page were things we actually have. Now that we are hosted, there are TONS of options there, some of which are paid services that we do not even have, such as Importacular. We want to hide these things because they are entirely irrelevent to our organization.

    Additionally, there are Plugins there that allow users to make global changes to the system, including deleting things. Our general staff members show NOT have access to those functions. However, Blackbaud's only suggestion was to take away users' rights to edit records. This would prevent our staff from doing their jobs altogether. Users need to be able to edit records individually, but they should not have access to make those global edits/deletes.

    Finally, last night, there was an update that effects users of PaperSave. Formerly, we access PaperSave integration with RE via our system tray. Now it has been moved to the Plugins page. I have many staff who have never accessed the Plugins page who will now be accessing it for the first time today and will access it many times per day, every day. They should not have to wade through such an enormous list of Plugins to find the one they need, especially when the list is full of services we don't have and things that they are not authorized to run anyway.

    We need permissions for Plugins ASAP!
