i'm using Sitecore 6.5. I want to configure a Sitecore role to access the /system folder from the content editor. (my end goal is to have certain user to access and edit the webforms in /system/modules/web forms for marketeers)
I have granted read rights to the system folder on the role, but the /system folder does not appear in the content editor tree.
I guess if there is some other security preventing the users to see the system folder? I can only get a view on the system folder by granting full admin rights to the user.
In Sitecore, the roles are stored in the membership provider, default in the core database in . net membership tables, not in Sitecore items.
In Sitecore, access security is controlled on three levels: user - an individual user. role - a collection of users. Roles enable you to assign access rights to a group of users instead of to an individual user.
First off, make sure the user has the Entire Tree
and Hidden Items
options ticked in the View
tab.
Also, to check if it's access rights you can use the Access Viewer
to see whether the user has access rights. If they don't you can click on the Read
right (for instance) and see why they don't have access to the System node (for example, which role Denies
the read access).
For more information, please check the Security Reference document on SDN.
