The refernce administrator of an OpenFlyers platform is the user defined as such in Admin > Structure > Structure > Contact information, Reference administrator field.

There can only be one reference administrator for each OpenFlyers platform.

This user has the privilege of never being completely blocked. The aim is to enable them, at any time, to change a setting that would have led them to block themselves.

However, it is often the user who intervenes and/or controls the software's behaviour.

Until now, the reference administrator sometimes thought that restrictions were not really in place because, when he tested himself with his own login, he himself was never restricted.

From now on, in order to remove any ambiguity, when the reference administrator logs in and should find himself restricted due to a lack of validity or an insufficient account balance, a specific message appears with a toggle switch giving him the possibility of overriding this or these restrictions.

Note that this override button is specific to the reference administrator privilege. If the reference administrator logs in with a profile that contains a right to override a restriction, then the standard behaviour is applied: i.e. the restriction is automatically replaced by a connection alert.
