Hi Georgi<br>It may sound silly to you as you may be one of the experts in OpenCms.But i have just started working in OPenCms .I am working on a OpenCms application which uses 6.2.3 version I have to migrate it to 7.0.4 version.<br>
I will say that there is no true sequence to create a project.I will post few questions which came to my mind<br>1.I want to create a website so should i start with creating project in opencms or first should create folder structure.?<br>
<br>2.what to create first group or users. what i am doing after trying random way is that first i am creating folder structure then i will create group then user assign user to group and finally will create project .This is my suggestion that everything should be in wizard manner once you click on create project ,you should be provided with options one by one and at the end your project should be complete.ex like microsoft products.<br>
<br>3.I am totally confused with the users.groups and roles .How we are assinging permission is not at all clear .Present way is not friendly .when you create user you just assign group but i just cannot see where how permmissions are assign or how permission system is going to work.<br>
<br>4. once you create everything and righclick on the resource say a jsp. And you select permissions .you see userr permmissions,permssion inherited from parent folders and resource permission.The following doubts are in mind regarding this.<br>
<br> a.user permission means if i login as Admin then 'user permission' on resource means that admin has these permission on the jsp.<br><br><br> b.looking at 'permissions inherited from parent folder' there you have Adminstrators ,Users,ProjectManagers group.I think that if login user is Administrator then his available permsions are shown in Administrators groups,If login user belongs to 'ProjectManagers' group then ProjectManager group is showing his permission.<br>
<br>but then b is contradicting a.<br><br>c.finally resouce permission also there .so if all these is shown in the UI what is the actual permissions fo login users how its determined if user belongs to two groups.<br><br>
I read something about 'Role based Acess Control' and heard lots of praise for such system.I am not sure but if it makes OpenCms simpler then it should be implemented.<br><br>I have looked this much only in OpenCms and i found permssion assingment very complex.I have already posted many posts in last few days but didnt get single answer.<br>
