# How to configure permissions

Permissions control which styles players may pick and which settings tabs / actions they can use.

#### Menu locks (admin UI)

Section access, editor / colour locks and forced components are managed in-game:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Open HUD settings as admin**

{% content-ref url="/pages/mwYPsj2bZm8OONT62Msb" %}
[How to grant HUD admin](/scripts/op-hud-v2/tutorials/how-to-grant-hud-admin.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Open Permissions**

Use the **Permissions** admin tab.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Toggle section flags**

Each HUD section (`general`, `status`, `vehicle`, `minimap`, `notify`, `progress`, …) has flags such as `access`, `style`, `colors`, `toggles`. Turn them off to hide or lock that part of the menu for non-admins.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Save**

Save from the admin tab. The override is pushed to players immediately.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Admins bypass menu locks so they can always configure defaults and permissions.
{% endhint %}
