In my sitecore content authoring, i'm trying to create new user and to assign the roles. But the roles are not being added to the user. Not sure what is going wrong. I have done this before, in same authoring server and i succeeded.
Below are the screen shots.
In Ribbion -> Usermanager -> New : Below screen appeared and filled these details.
Clicked on Edit Roles and added the roles.
Clicked on Ok. I don't see roles being added to the list.
Here are the few information :
1. I'm using sitecore 6.6
2. Tried in latest chrome and Mozilla browser.
This is a known issue . Here is the reference into Sitecore Knowledge Base site :

I have gone to the django-oscar dashboard and went to Fulfillment - > Partners,
there I created a partner and linked a user and gave a limited dashboard access.
Now I see that most of the drop-downs are not visible to them(partner), that's fine.This is due to the permission given 'Can access dashboard'.
But, when I go to add the products, I see only the Stock and Pricing tab is there on the left, but there is no tab for variants, how do I get it to show in the dashboard of the partner also?
Should I give any other permission for the user linked ?
According to the docs link https://django-oscar.readthedocs.io/en/releases-1.6/ref/apps/dashboard.html in the note it says The permission-based dashboard currently does not support parent or child products.Supporting this requires a modelling change. If you require this, please get in touch so we can first learn about your use case. , but how and whom do I contact?
Or can I extend some of the partner views to achieve this?
I've got a Sitecore Multilist that has several pre-selected items on it. Certain users aren't able to see the items on the list, because they don't have read access to the items.
The problem I've run into is that these users have some 12 roles and I can't figure out which one is restricting their read access to the items in the list. Is there an easy way to figure out which role needs to be modified to give them read access to these items?
I'm running Sitecore 7.2
You can use Sitecore Access Viewer application from Sitecore Desktop (Sitecore -> Security Tools -> Access Viewer).
Select chosen user
Find item which is not allowed for that user
Click on the 'Read' column.
You will see explanation why access is denied in right column
I have a user who's been assigned the sitecore/Analytics Reporting role (member of Sitecore Client Users), and when I log in with that user I can see Marketing Center, Engagement Analytics and Executive Dashboard. I now want to give this user read access to a content item, but I can't make it work.
First of all, the sitecore/Analytics Reporting role already has read access to the content editor etc (inherited from the Everyone role), so why can't I see it? I created another role with explicit read access to the content item and assigned it to the same user, but I still can't see it. Does anyone know what I need to do for the user to see the content item?
I seen this a few times before with older Sitecore versions. Doing a Sitecore cache clear or IIS reset resolved it at that time.
After checking with Sitecore support they told me you have to add Sitecore Client Designer to your role (even though the Access Viewer shows you have read access you still won't be able to see it until you've added this role).
I am working on a website that uses Sitecore CMS. An intranet webpart was already created with restricted access.
In this intranet I've created a new page which should only be visible for 1 role. I have created the new role. I tried to mess around with the security of the page in the content editor (Security --> Assign). I published the changes. But no matter what I do, it doesn't seem to have any effect.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Open the sitecore desktop ( http://yoururl/sitecore/shell ), click on the 'sitecore' button, then 'security tools' and 'security editor'.
Select the 'anonymous user' account in the ribbon, click on the chosen page in the tree, and click 'x' near 'read'.
Then click 'select' in the ribbon and choose the proper role. Once again select the chosen node and allow 'Read' rights for the role.
Once it's done, you can use 'Access viewer' app (once again sitecore button and security tools on the desktop) to check whether the rights are set properly.
The trick is probably to deny access for the extranet\Anonymous user and then grant access for the role.
I like to use the Access Viewer or the Security Editor for that, instead of the Content Editor as it gives you a better overview.
Make sure to put inheritance to good use so you don't have to set security to each item individually but rather on the root of the site (if possible).
I advice you to take a look at the Sitecore Security Administrators Cookbook: http://sdn.sitecore.net/upload/sitecore6/securityadministratorscookbook-usletter.pdf
I'm using the xfbml Add To Timeline social plugin (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/add-to-timeline/), but when I click it the permissions dialog I get just says "Access my basic information" and sure enough it isn't actually getting me the publish_actions permission I need to use the timeline. I tried specifying the perm explicitly on the tag like so:<fb:add-to-timeline show-face="false" mode="button" perms="publish_actions"></fb:add-to-timeline> but no luck.
This was working fine yesterday and suddenly now it isn't. I'm wondering if this has something to do with my adding and removing my app from my facebook account multiple times?
This was driving me crazy for a long while. In my case, I fixed it by enabling 'Enhanced Auth Dialog' under the Advanced tab of my app settings.
When asking for publish_actions Facebook shows a preview screen of what sort of aggregations your app will create on their timeline.
In other words, if the preview isn't working, Facebook won't ask for the permission so you're asking in vain. Facebook doesn't make this clear in the docs, but everything needs to be perfectly setup with your app on Facebook to get this to work right.
Enable Enhanced Auth Dialong in the advanced settings of the app
Make sure you have at least one action and one object set up in the open graph section
For each action you must have an aggregation set up.
If you do not do all of these steps, there can be no preview and so Facebook won't ask for permission no matter what.
I faced the same issue. I fixed it by doing the below mentioned two thiings.
a. Enabled 'Enhanced Auth dialog' from 'advanced' setting of the app.
b. blanked 'user and friend permissions' along with 'extended permissions' tab on 'auth dialog' page.
I am not sure what it did, but it started working.
BUT.. Even though the authentication works and the posts are reflecting on my timeline, the add-to-timeline button still shows, 'Add to Timeline'..
The other trick i used is to keep checking the app permissions under account setting tab of my profile page.
Hope this helps !
From Apps -> Settings -> Auth Dialog:
While in Open Graph Beta, the 'publish_actions' permission can only be
requested from developers and test users of your app. The
'publish_actions' permission will be ignored if requested from any
other user.
I had the Enhanced Auth Dialog enabled in the Advanced Settings, yet this did not work until I added a Aggregation Preview for the activity. Strange, but true.
Hope this helps.
The publish_actions permission appears only if the user has added timeline OR if your app is a game. I suppose it will also be available for apps when Timeline will be rolled out to all users...
