This is a minor patch release of uSync for Umbraco v16 - that contains a new feature that lets you move the uSync tree into it's own section of the backoffice. this has the effect of letting you give people uSync access who don't have settings access.

[!WARNING] Access to uSync means a user can import changes to your site that would only normally be possible if they had settings access, as such moving uSync to a new section and removing settings access isn't reducing the level of control a user may have over your site it is mearly removing their access to the settings UI while they retain full access to what uSync will let them do.

This is a UI not a security change, and should be treated as that.

What's Changed

• Add a custom section with the uSync tree in it by @KevinJump in https://github.com/KevinJump/uSync/pull/794

Full Changelog: https://github.com/KevinJump/uSync/compare/v16.0.3...v16.0.4

Moving the uSync tree to it's own section

Adding the new MoveToSection to the uSync settings.

 "uSync": {
    "Settings": {
      "MoveToSection": true
    }
  }

Will result in a new "Synchronisation" section being added to Umbraco.

[!NOTE] You will have to add this section to the list of allowed sections for the groups you now want to access uSync (including the admin group)
