Re: Category tiki_p_edit permission are not applied while creating page.

posts: 1563 Germany

Hi,

in my mind a normal behaviour.

At the moment you create a page, it is not yet categorised, so category permissions are not yet applied and you cannot edit without general edit perms.

Solution is a rethinking of user/group permission management.

This in my mind is an underestimated topic in our documentation at this time.

So setup tiki_p_edit for all editors and workout all content with category => even public (wiki) content gets a category ... category public.

So if all content is categorised, nobody can edit or view, who is not explecitely permitted

And for uncategorised content you simply set very strict limited visibility tiki_p_view.



btw:

you did not set object permissions (as a category is not an object but a category ;-) ) you did set category permissions and apply the category to the object.

you should very rarely use object permissions - especially when you use categories and category permissions - otherwise you will get in trouble by overriding types of permissions and endup not finding where the wrong object permissions block the right category permissions ...

... object permissions can be handy and necessary, but be careful and do not use the mixed up with other sorts of permissions all over the place
