Hi,
Scenario:
Create space XYZSpace
Create user Xwiki.XYZAdministrator
Give user Xwiki.XYZAdminister administrative rights in XYZSpace
Administration link shows on XYZ.WebHome
But, when Xwiki.XYZAdministrator clicks the link he's not
allowed to view the Xwiki.XwikiPreferences page
I think this is a UI problem, meaning that Administration link in the
upper right corner always goes to global administration and not to
space administration. Try
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/admin/XYZSpace/WebPreferences?editor=spaceri…
for example (simply change /XWiki/XWikiPreferences in
/XYZSpace/WebPreferences), are you able to edit rights ?
So.. Xwiki.XYZAdministrator can't grant
view or edit rights to
XYZSpace to other users
So then... we give Xwiki.XYZAdministrator administrative rights
to the Xwiki space
Now he is allowed to veiw the Xwiki.XwikiPreferences page
But, he can now grant global rights to any users
Which seems odd to us
The question is:
How can a user that has administrative rights in a space, but
has no rights in the xwiki space, be able to grant view or edit rights
to other users in the space he can administer.
If a space administrator can't administer users rights to the
space he can administer what is the point of granting administrative
rights at the space level?
Please help.
Thanks
satya
