You can either add them to the sourcemod admin list or the SoccerMod admin list. In case of sourcemod admins you also got the choice between adding them to the admins.cfg file or the admins_simple.ini.

Public Mode
SoMoE-19 features 3 different access modes which can be changed with this menu.
The structure of this menu looks like this:
Admin Access Only blocks players from accessing the admin menu portion unless they’re found in any of the possible admin lists. Which parts of the menu will be visible and accessible depends on the admin type. In case of SoccerMod admins only the allowed modules will be visible. SourceMod admins will see everything by default.
Public !cap and !match is a combination of the other 2 modes. Every player can access a limited version of the admin menu, while admins can still access everything.
Public !menu allows every player to access every part a full SoccerMod admin could access whether they’re admins or not.

Re-enabling a sound will require a new round to start.
Lock Settings
Allows the configuration of any serverlock related setting. Serverlock is a feature to automatically change the servers password to a random value as soon as certain criterias are met. The main criteria is a started cap fight, a variable one is the number of players before the lock is activated. As soon as the playercount falls below the set threshold the password is reverted. This is to ensure that the required number of players for a match can still be achieved if people leave or are kicked because of inactivity. While the Serverlock is active an AFK-Kicker will also take effect, acting according to configurable time frames.
The structure of this menu looks like this:
Lock Settings
Enable Serverlock - Enable an automatic passwordchange if a cap fight is started and the number of players is higher than a set threshold.
Disable Serverlock - Disables the feature.
Player Threshold - Change the threshold of players that has to be crossed before the passwordchange takes effect.
Captcha Timer - Time of inactivity before the AFK-Kicker sends a captcha menu to inactive players to check whether they’re actually there.
