For developers: what the fix changed

The fix introduces a new permission in ultimate_table_field.permissions.yml and applies it to the ultimate_table_field.open_modal_form route in ultimate_table_field.routing.yml. It also adds an access check to the modalLinkBuilder function in src/Element/UltimateTableTrait.php to hide the link for users without the permission.

Also in this release A post update hook was added to inform administrators about the new permission, and the README was updated.

Get in touch

Tell me who you are, what your organisation does, and what you need. That might be a Drupal site that needs looking after, an upgrade to get done before December, or an agency that needs Drupal cover.

If I can help, I'll say so and suggest a call. If I can't, I'll tell you straight away rather than waste your time.

For context: I work mainly with UK charities, membership bodies and research organisations, and with the agencies that look after their websites. Not recruiters.

Or start smaller and connect with me on LinkedIn. That's where I post what I find digging around in charity and grants data, and where the free tools turn up first.
