Permissions

How to grant admin access to op-clothing features.

Every admin feature - the thumbnail generator, /clothingadmin, the shop editor, the job locker editor and custom ped management - shares one permission gate configured in config/MainConfig.lua under Config.Permissions.

The gate

Config.Permissions = {
    AcePermission = 'op_clothing.admin',            -- ACE permission object
    AllowedGroups = { 'admin', 'superadmin', 'god' }, -- framework groups
}

A player passes the gate when any of these is true:

• They hold the AcePermission ACE, or

• Their framework group is in AllowedGroups, or

• The command is run from the server console.

Option A - ACE permission (recommended)

ACE works on every framework and is independent of in-game jobs/groups. Add this to your server.cfg:

# allow a whole group
add_ace group.admin op_clothing.admin allow

# or allow a single identifier (license, steam, etc.)
add_principal identifier.license:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx group.admin

If your admins are already in group.admin (txAdmin assigns this by default), the single add_ace group.admin op_clothing.admin allow line is all you need.

Option B - framework groups

If you'd rather gate by your framework's group/permission, leave AcePermission as-is and edit AllowedGroups to match your setup:

AllowedGroups = { 'admin', 'superadmin', 'god' },

• ESX - matches the player's group (admin, superadmin, ...).

• QBCore / Qbox - matches the player's permission level (admin, god).

Custom ped permission (separate)

Granting players access to custom peds is intentionally a different, narrower permission so you can hand it out without full admin rights. It lives in config/CustomPeds.lua:

AllowAce = 'op-clothing.customped.allow',

Holders of this ACE (or anyone who passes the main admin gate) can pick custom peds. Per-player grants are stored in the database and managed through these exports:

exports['op-clothing']:GrantCustomPedPermission(src)
exports['op-clothing']:RevokeCustomPedPermission(src)
local has = exports['op-clothing']:HasCustomPedPermission(src)

What each feature checks

Feature	Command	Gate
Clothing admin hub	/clothingadmin	Config.Permissions
Thumbnail generator	/op_clothing_thumbs	Config.Permissions
Shop editor	/clothingadmin shops	Config.Permissions
Job locker editor	/clothingadmin lockers	Config.Permissions
Custom peds	/charmenu	Config.Permissions or CustomPeds.AllowAce

Troubleshooting

• "No access" in-game - confirm the ACE line is in server.cfg and the player is in the right group, then refresh / reconnect.

• Works in console but not in-game - the console always passes; your in-game player is missing the ACE or group.

• Changed the config but nothing changed - restart op-clothing so the new Config.Permissions is loaded.
