Hi Marius,
that works and was easy to realize, thanks! And thanks for your
description as well. I now understand why this is happening.
Vincent also wrote that this behavior is quite normal, but it could be a
bit more user friendly...in my opinion. It would be nice if normal users
where not permitted to edit the page or if they get a warning that the
page will be saved with wrong permissions.
Best regards

Hi Xwiki Team,
it seems as if there is a small bug in the "Menu Application"extension
(version 8.2). Every time a user, that is not in the XWikiAdminGroup, does
some changes on the menu page in edit mode, the menu crashes and is no
longer visible. To fix that an admin user of XWikiAdminGroup has to edit
and save the page. It is important that a small change has to be done by
the admin user.
This behavior is normal. The menu has a property named "Menu Visibility
Scope" with 3 possible values. The "Current Wiki" value requires the menu
to be saved by someone that has wiki administration rights, because the
menu is visible everywhere on the wiki. You don't want a simple user to add
a new menu that is visible for everyone.
You may want to try the following:
* put the content of the menu page in a separate page
* give edit rights for this separate page to the simple users that are
allowed to modify the menu
* use the include macro to include the separate page in the menu page. Do
this with someone that has administration rights so that the menu page is
saved with the proper rights.
Hope this helps,
Marius
Best regards
Alina
