The problem I ran into was wanting to give the helpdesk access to mactrack and the cycle tabs. However, once you log in with that ID you're told you don't have access to view that page (presumably graphs). I give them access to graphs tree view and they can log in. It would be nice to only give them access to those tab, but it would be even nicer to be able to create either a custom graphs view with specific graphs on it.
Is it currently possible to create a graphs page with graphs for different hosts/devices?

Considering that MAC track is an addon, the answer is no.

I realize that mactrack is a plugin, but what I'm asking is graphs (those that you find in cacti without any add-on - mactrack doesn't do graphs that I'm aware of) from different hosts on the same view.
An example would be a 4th view called "User Select View", and you could build it like you do your host graph pages - selecting which graphs (from all of the graphs for all of the hosts) you want to view on one page in this veiw. That way when you create a user for limited access you do not have to give the graph view at all, except that "User Select View" (which you would make their default veiw) AND they'd be able to see the various plugins you give them access.
Keep in mind the original problem was that I wanted to create a user which ONLY had access to two plugins - but since you're force to gie them at least one graph view, why not make it a graph view you'd like them to be able to see and not the entire site/tree?

This permission problem should go away in 0.9.0, as it will have more permission controls that the plugin developers can use.
