 * Great plugin because it tracks changes made to theme files, which is really what
   I’m looking for.
 * One additional thing I’d like to know what file was edited.
 * I’d also like to make it so that I’m the only one that can access the settings
   or view the log, their is usually more than one admin on the sites I build and
   their the ones I actually need to monitor. Sad but true.

 * Hi Hube2!
 * 1) You’ll be pleased to know that more robust Theme Editor tracking is already
   on our radar and will be released very soon. See GitHub issue [#313](https://github.com/x-team/wp-stream/issues/313)
   for more details on the progress of the feature.
 * 2) For your second question, yes you can limit what _Roles_ can access Stream
   by choosing allowed roles under **Stream > Settings > General > Role Access**.
 * However, we do have plans underway to allow you to be able to choose specific
   _Users_ too, not just roles. That is being tracking in GitHub issue [#253](https://github.com/x-team/wp-stream/issues/253).
   You follow our progress there as well on that feature, we hope to release a solution
   soon (within the next few weeks.
 * Thanks for your feedback!

 * Cool, thanks, will be looking forward to it. I honestly don’t like the fact that
   I need to start monitoring what people are doing, especially site admins, but
   I guess it’s a necessary evil when you’ve got many sites to maintain and need
   to know who broke what.

 * Hey Hube2, I’ve just been thinking more about what you are wanting to achieve
   and I think I see the dilemma here you’re describing.
 * The purpose of roles is to grant permission to certain levels of access, it seems
   like in this situation that the roles are the same (you are both Administrators)
   yet the permission levels desired are not the same. So really, this should probably
   be achieved using different role assignments.
 * I think it would be wrong of Stream to decide that _some_ Administrators can 
   access the plugin and its settings, while other Administrators cannot. Instead,
   it might be better to create some kind of _Super Editor_ role for your clients,
   where they essentially have all the power of an Administrator minus the ability
   to access Stream or create other Administrator users. This would seem to me to
   be the most pure way to solve the actual problem.
 * I would suggest taking a look at the [Members](http://wordpress.org/plugins/members/)
   plugin, which will give you the ability to do something like this.
