Renaming built-in roles

Hi Joe,

If I rename the built-in roles (i.e. Authenticated Users role), will it break any funcationality on the portal?

Thanks in advance,

Sherwin

Re: Renaming built-in roles

Hi Sherwin,

No it wil not break anything because the actual role name is never changed after role creation. If you edit it, it will change only the display name. When a role is created the rolename and display name are the same but if the system actually allowed you to rename the roles it would break things so I designed it such that only display name is changed if the role is edited after creation.

Hope it helps,

Joe
