Setting Permissions through the Permissions Table

Important: All members of the Administrators group are automatically granted all permissions to all Ektron CMS400.NET folders. Although these users do not appear when you view a folder’s permission settings, they have full permissions.

You manage the following permissions through the Permission Table (illustrated below).

Content management: view, add, edit, delete, restore

Library File Management: view, add images, add other types of files, add hyperlinks, overwrite files

Folder management: add, edit, delete, traverse

Work with Collections and Menus

Note: You can use the Roles screens to assign additional permissions that are not defined in the Permission Table, such as the ability to create tasks. See Also: Defining Roles

The Permission Table appears when you click Permission () from a folder’s or content item’s Properties window.

Best Practice

If you need to assign multiple users the same permission, Ektron recommends placing them in a user group and assigning the group to the Permission Table. If you assign too many users in the Permission Table, your system's response time may degrade.
