Never forget to update permissions.

When you add a section, volume, or plugin, Craft won’t grant the new permissions for you. Update Permissions Reminder watches your schema and nudges admins to review them — before your editors get locked out.

Update Permissions Reminder

Features

A simple, essential safeguard for multi-user Craft CMS sites.

Schema Change Detection

Watches for new sections, entry types, global sets, asset volumes, category groups, and user groups — the exact moments permissions fall out of sync.

Admin Reminders

A sticky bar and optional modal surface a clear prompt inside the control panel, asking admins to review and update user permissions.

You Stay in Control

The plugin never edits permissions on its own. It only reminds and links you to the right screen, so you always decide who can do what.

Zero Configuration

No config file to wire up and no templates to edit. Install the plugin and it starts watching for schema changes immediately.

Admin-Only & Lightweight

Reminders are shown only to admins and only inside the control panel. Editors are never interrupted and your front end is untouched.

Free & Open Source

Completely free under the Craft license. No paid tiers, no usage limits — and the source is on GitHub.
