Page Properties Read Only Mode

[arvind]

Hi Team,

Is there any way that only admin group (A) can modify Page Properties whereas other Editors Group (B) only can see them in READ ONLY Mode.

I know that using Render Condition, we can show/hide based on user/group. But how to play with Permission to achieve above.

BR,

KTNR

Hi @arvind ,

you can give only read permission to the template for the other users through user management and no need to use render conditions to show/hide to certain users, please leverage CUG(closed user group) feature for the same.

Thank you.

Page properties are stored in the page/jcr:content node, so you should disallow the privilege "writeProperties" on this node (use wildcard ACLs for it at best, see [1]).

Thank you for Reply.

But Requirement is "NOT ALL, but only few Page Properties should be in read only mode for GROUP B".

Restrict write access to a property (example:pageTitle) by following steps

• Open CRXDE
• Browse to /content/we-retail/language-masters/en
• Click on the Access Control tab
• Click the green plus
• Select <some_group> as the principal
• Select Deny
• Select rep:write as the privilege
• Open the Advanced section
• In the rep:glob field enter */pageTitle
• Click OK
• Click Save All

If a user from configured group, will try to update pageTitle, they would get following error:

However, they would be able to save other properties
