Problems with content editing permissions

Post by rockobop »

Hello everyone:

anyone knows how I can remove permissions to edit a page, and give it only to some users?, try the says on this page

http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... ermissions

but I can not see the options for add / remove "Additional Editors" mentioned in this paragraph
Now let's go to one page and allow a user to access it

        * In the top Menu, select "Content/Pages".
        * Choose the page you want to add/remove "Additional Editors" to and click its link.
        * When the page opens, you will notice three TABS just below 'Edit Content'. Click the middle one, called "Options".
        * At the bottom of this Options page, is a field called Owner, usually this is the username of the person who designed the site, and can also be the owner of the website.
        * In the dropdown list you can change the owner of this page, if you wish.
        * Just below this Owner's field, is another long skinny field, called 'Additional Editors'
        * To add a user as an additional editor make sure you first press the control key and then you press the name of that user. If you don't first press the control key, other editor's will be deselected from the list, which is something you probably don't want. With using the control key you can easily (de-)select multiple users from the list.
        * Click the SUBMIT button.
        * At the top of the list of Pages you will see, 'The content was successfully updated'.

the version I'm using is 1.7.1

regards

Thanks in advance for your help

Additional editors are on the options-tab of a page.

If you go there, you can press mouse-click to select an add-editor, while shift + mouse-click is deselect.

Shift + mouse-click is select multiple entrys only (all entrys continously from the selected to the clicked item).
While CTRL + mouse-cick (CMD + mouse-click on Mac) is to select certain multiple items or to deselect if clicked on a already selected item ;)
