I am on 8.2 and have had the same issue. The only way I was able to get the
icon to show up for users was to give the group global edit rights then
exclude the pages that I didn't want that group to modify, although this is
not the route I wanted to take it does work for my current implementation.
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi All
Hopefully someone can help with this issue.
We are running 8.1 and some users are not able to see the “create page”
button. This is what I am expecting:
http://pasteboard.co/6y8jirpqd.png
Instead, the user sees this:
http://pasteboard.co/6y9FK2KQT.png
So I assumed it must be a permissions issue. So I checked that the Group
had the correct permissions to Edit (in this case I am using the Sandbox as
an example, but it applies to all other top level pages – what were once
spaces).
As you can see below, the XWikiAllGroup has View and Edit permissions and
the user can certainly see and edit the page. But I was sure that having
“Edit” also meant the ability to “add” pages. If “adding” is a separate
permission, please tell me where I can find this.

I have also tried giving the user directly ALL the permissions and still
the user doesn’t get the “add” button. Yet if I browse directly to
http://xwiki.local:8080/xwiki/bin/create/Sandbox/ I get the create page
and I can successfully create/edit/save the page.
I have also tried:
• Giving all permissions to all the groups the user is a member of
• Different combinations of different groups
• Removing permissions for all groups and just giving the user permission
directly
• Looking through the mailing list for any reported issues (though it was
a quick browse so I may have missed it).
• Checked that I do not have any overriding *.vm files attached to the
skin that would cause this
The next step will be to upgrade to 8.2 to see if this resolves it, but I
am not hopeful. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Any help please?
Kind regards,
