You should be able to see the access rights for the shared library folder if you go to admin mode and select Set Access rights. It is located as a children to RootPage.
I had the same problem but not upgrading from EPi6.
I fixed the roles for CmsAdmins and CmsEditors in EPiServerFramework.config and everything started to work correctly.
Hi,
I have a site upgraded from EPi 6. For some reason I am unable to create shared blocks. When I open the assets pane and choose blocks, the alternatives for creating new blocks and new folders are greyed out. At first I could not see the global blocks library folder either but I managed to find the correct id and set it on siteBlockFolderId in episerver.config. Now that folder shows but I am still not able to create any new folders or blocks in it. Does anybody know if this could be an issue with access rights for folders or some setting that I might have missed?
