Hi Joe,

I've been a really pleased mojoPortal user and appreciate your work.

I'm currently running version 2.3.4.5 MSSQL and have it configured for multiple sites through host names with relatedsitemode turned on. I'm currently only using the html content type.

I've created custom editor roles for each child site from the parent site.  I've applied the permissions to my custom editor roles in Site Settings for the Parent site, and applied the appropriate "Site Editor Role" in the Security setting of the childsites (within the Parent site Admin Site Settings).

Permissions have been granted such as: create root level pages, browse & upload, delete files, edit content and style templates, create users, etc.

When I log into the child site with my custom editor role, the grey admin toolbar on the bottom is randomly different per content page.

For example, on the home page, my options are "Administration, File Manager, and New Page", and then on another root level page they are "Page, list, File Manager, New Page, Edit this Page, Page Settings".  When I look at the per-page permissions to try to see the difference between these two pages, I see that the permissions are identical (read, write, edit).  I want all the content pages to have "Administration, Page list, File Manager, New Page, Edit this Page, Page Settings", especially "Edit this Page" and "Page Settings".  I know the permissions for that are existing, because i can go 'the long way' through: Administration -> Add/Edit Pages -> ThisPage -> Edit -> Edit Settings for This Page.  But that is tedious and confusing for the users who see the expanded options on one content page and not others.

If I were to take a built in Role like "Content Administrator" then I can see all of the options I want (in the grey admin toolbar) across the content portion of the site.  Being that I'm working in RelatedSiteMode I don't want every Joe User ;-) Content Admin to be able to edit accross the child sites.

Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Beth

Hi Joe!

Thanks very much for the prompt response and fix of the issue!  When you say 'next release', does that mean the next stable, compiled release, or the next release of the source code?  Not sure where I should nab it from ;-)

Again, thanks for the help.

Best,

Beth

Hi Joe,

I'm posting here as it seems to be a similar issue as the one we discussed above.  I'm currently running on V 2.3.5.3 MSSQL multi-site mode.  I've got 8 sites, each with separate custom Site Editor Roles.  The permissions are all the same:

• can create root level pages
• can browse/upload (not to a specific folder)
• can delete using the file browser
• all other permissions left blank

On 3 of the 8 sites there is not an "Administration" link present on any page. Instead I get Page List, File Manager, New Page, Edit this Page, Page Settings.  The issue with this is not being able to access the Content Manager, Advanced Tools, and other items.  I know that the permissions are acceptable because using a Site Editor role, I am able to still access the Administrative Pages by clicking "Page List" and then clicking the "Administration Menu" link from that page. 

On a side note I also had an issue today with one of those 3 sites and publishing drafts.  I had several pages that mojoPortal thought were published (showed them as published in the Content Manager and also in the Edit mode [WYSIWYG]) but they were not published at all (when we logged out they were no longer visible).  I check Page Settings (for "Draft" mode), Feature Instance Settings ("All" users can view content) and there were no permission limitations on the content. I ended up having to re-create the content as new HTML modules at which point I could publish them.  I've tried recreating this both on the live and test environments and have not been able to re-produce it, so I guess it's a fluke, although I thought I'd mention it in the event you have also experienced it.

My main concern is the lack of the Administration link on some of the sites.  Any advice/input you have to offer would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Beth
