Page History
This guide relates to page level restrictions, NOT space level restrictions as the latter can only be assigned by an administrator. Space level restrictions will prevent you from accessing or seeing anything in a space.
Note |
---|
Page level restrictions are cascading. That means if you apply it to a page that has sub-pages (children) and sub-subpages (grandchildren) the restrictions will flow onto the children and grandchildren. |
There are two questions that need to be asked when adding persons to restricted pages:
- Do you have permission to add restrictions? If the options mentioned below are not showing for you then chances are you don't. Contact Michelle Fadelli for the necessary permissions.
- Does the page have restrictions?
Chose the Restrictions
On the pop up window that will appear click on the drop down arrow to get the three restriction options for the page
1) No restrictions - means everyone can view and edit the page
2) Editing restriction - Means only those you give permission can edit the page, however everyone can view the page (Note: they must have space level permissions to be able to edit otherwise it will not have any impact)
3) Viewing and editing restriction - means only those you have given rights can view and edit the page.
To give people permission to edit and view the pages
start typing the name of the person, select the permission you want them to have (either can view or can view and edit) and click add
Click on Apply
View current page restrictions
The restrictions icon at the top of the page gives you a clue that the page has restrictions:
Viewing this page is not restricted. Everyone can see this page (but editing may be restricted). | |
The page is restricted. Click the icon to see the list of who can view and edit this page. | |
The page is inheriting restrictions from another page. Click the icon then choose Inherited Restrictions to see a list of pages this page is inheriting restrictions from. |
Removing restrictions
Click 'Remove restrictions' next to the person(s) you want to remove restrictions from
Tip Removing all clears the page and its children, grandchildren, etc. of restrictions.
