    hellow,

    i have the following situation:

    a manager user can add announces on the site:

    the maindocument calls ’announces’. In this document i have set up a ditto-call.

    The manager user must have access to the maindocument ’announces’ before he can ad children to this maindocument.

    But that is the problem: he doesn’t may have access to this maindocument so that he can’t change this document

    for example:

    - maindocument ’announces’ (manager user may not have access)
    - ’announce1’ (manager user may have access)
    - ’announce2’ (manager user may have access)
    - ...

    when he create ’announce3’, he must have access to ’announces’ before he can save this document (child)

    can anyone help how i can set this up?

    thanks
    • The only solution to this is to enable the Show Protected Pages, in the Configuration ->Interface & Features tab. Then the user will see all the documents, but will still only be able to actually access the ones he has permissions for.

        this option was enabled.

        i don’t think this is the solution

        because the main problem isn’t away: the manager user cannot create children if he doesn’t have access to the main document.

        that is my opinion at the moment


        • One solution to that would be to have him duplicate one of the documents that he has permissions for, and then edit the duplicate.
