User menu items need more granular control

[ctcarrier]

We are using Lift's automagic user menu stuff to handle sign ins and forgot password screen and things like that. It works well but we don't really want 'Forgot Password' and some others in the main navigation menu. We need to figure out how to control which items are shown where. I managed to disable some of the items completely but then they were gone from every screen even where we would want them.

Also need different levels of permission beyond isLoggedIn - eg Add species should probably be some more Admin(?) task?

Totally. I think there may exist something like isAdmin. Though not sure where i saw that. Either way do you think that would do? Or would be need a system for tracking multiple levels? Like 'user', 'admin', 'moderator', etc?

Nope I think one level beyond user is fine - there's a "superuser" field I think in the user documents - maybe there's a built-in tied to that.
