Controlling Access          
  
   
 


Access to pages and actions is controlled from the Access Administration page

At the top of the page is the type of access right being defined, either read, update or delete, and the target page the definition is to apply to.

The Go button takes you the target page shown in the page name field.

The Refresh button refreshes the access rights for the fields set above.

The users and groups ticked are the ones allowed the selected kind of access. It is better practice to define access by group rather than user.

Access control applies to all child pages of the target page. Restricting access to a page RestrictedInformation also applies to the pages RestrictedInformation/CompanyDetails and the page RestrictedInformation/CustomerDetails

The page OpenForum/Page has special properties and access controls applied here apply to the whole site.

Once the desired changes have been made, the changes must be saved using the Save button.

Clicking the Remove Access Control removes all access control from the target page. Access control may still be in place if the page has a parent with access controls or the special page OpenForum/Page has access controls.
