Hi there,

I have given permissions for two folders under the root node in which the editor can edit/create/read after logging from the adminstration site.

The roles and permission are

Content - read - Node(Home), Subtree(Folder1, Folder2)
Content - create - Node(Home), Subtree(Folder1, Folder2)
Content - edit - Node(Home), Subtree(Folder1, Folder2)
............................
....................

Now when i logged as editor i can only see two folders which are folder1, folder2 in the adminstration site which is fair enough.

I went into the folder1 and created an article in it, problem comes when i am trying to add an object by "Add existing" at the bottom of the page while creating an article. Clicking on the "Add existing" button takes me to the screen where i can navigate to select the object. Clicking the vertical arrow button very next ot the root node name is giving me permission errors.

I checked the url which is coming to

http://sitename/siteaccess_admin/content/browse/1

Is it a bug or my roles and persmission are wrong.

your error means that Your editor rĂ´le doesn't give the permission to read the object you want to browse.

what's your complete role setting(for this Editor user)?

How can I give the read permission to the url ending with /browser/1/? The system is representing /browe/2/ for the root node.

The node with ID 1 is the real root node, under which the content root node, users root node, media root node are placed. Node 1 doesn't contain any object.

If you don't want your users to be able to read other objects (and relate them to your articles), then you can just remove the vertical arrow button in content/browse when the can_read attribute of the parent node is false.

If you want your users to be able to browse the node with id 1, then assign content/read permissions for it:
- content/read without any restrictions
- manually add content/read node(node with id 1) to your database, this seems not possible through the admin interface.

Thanks for your kind reply, will do that. Is it a bug or meant to be like that?

It's the way it is since I started using eZ publish, so I guess It's meant to be like that.
