how to create categories manager?

Hi,

I wish to create course creator role, with capability to create, edit and delete categories and to create new courses, assign them roles but without permission to view content of the courses.

I modified course creator role, so that role can manage categories (actually, deleting category doesnt work, even if there is moodle/category:delete set to allow)

I set moodle/course:update and moodle/role:assign to allow. Why isnt this role able to update course or assign roles? It works only when I set moodle/course:visibility to allow (but this is something what I dont want)

Im using moodle 1.8.2

Thanks for any help

If this is true then it could well be a bug. I would file it in the tracker along the lines of "moodle/course:update doesn't work without moodle/course:visibility". This *might* be a design decision, but I struggle to see why.
