Kenneth Colwell	Thursday 20 May 2004 7:21:49 am Could someone tell me what the minimum permissions are to allow users who only have access to a sub-tree to attach files or images? The following role has access to a sub-folder named adult studies but when you are logged in as this person and you edit and article then when you select file in the related objects box the screen just reloads and a message appears that states: Input was stored successfully. But you never get the screen to add the related object. Adult Studies Group Role policies Module Function Limitation content create Subtree( Adult Studies ) content edit Subtree( Adult Studies ) content remove Subtree( Adult Studies ) user login SiteAccess( muc_admin ) I have my related objects set to go into the media folder and I have also tried setting the role to be able to edit, create, remove items from the media folder but it still doesn't seem to work. Please help, Ken Colwell
Kenneth Colwell	Thursday 20 May 2004 2:11:00 pm Perhaps I should rephrase my question like the following: If I have a user who has the been assigned to the following role it is my belief that the user should be able to login to the admin site, edit content inside the adult studies folder (sub-tree) and add related items because all related items are stored in the media section because of my default settings. Role view Role Name: Adult Studies Group Role policies Module Function Limitation content create Subtree( Adult Studies ) content edit Subtree( Adult Studies ) content remove Subtree( Adult Studies ) user login SiteAccess( muc_admin ) content read Section( Media ) content create Section( Media ) content remove Section( Media ) content versionread Section( Media ) Should this user be able to use the related objects drop-down box to upload images or files? I happen to know that they can't on my site so I'm looking for any suggustions, observations, deep thoughts, or ice cream that might be helpful in solving this issue. Thanks, Ken Colwell

Kenneth Colwell	Friday 21 May 2004 6:59:01 am Hello, Yes Vidar, that does seem to be the same problem. Should I append my information to the bug report or just leave it here in the forums? Thanks, Ken Colwell
Vidar Langseid	Friday 21 May 2004 7:15:39 am I have already done that Best regards, Vidar
