[opencms-dev] OpenCMS 8 - Permissions

Actually you _can_ make the Header and Footer "not editable" for a specific
users. To do this, you need to remove the "view" permission on the element
for the users that should not be able to change it in ADE. Then the user can
not modify this element on the container page. 

Regarding your second question: It seems your header / footer are element
groups. This means a group of elements shared across pages. If you use a
model page, all pages created from the model are copies.

Kind Regards,
Alex.

Hi
So the user can modify also header and footer?

It has no sense. The tutorial says to use container for header and footer.
So 
why use containers if user can change header and footer?

Another question. If I use header and footer configuration in my model page 
and then I create a page in my site and then i modify header or footer, all
the 
pages that use that model page are updated automatically (i see the changhes

inside header and footer). If I have another container in my model page and
I 
modify it, other pages that uses that model are not updated. Are header and 
footer config particular elements?

thanks

Hello, 

This is not possible. If a user has write access to a container page, he    
can move or delete elements in all containers.

 
Kind Regards,
