Hi Jonathan,

In web.config file you have something like this:

<location path="episerver">
  <system.web>
    ...
    <authorization>
      <allow roles="WebEditors, WebAdmins, Administrators" />
      <deny users="*" />
    </authorization>
  </system.web>
  ...
</location>

If you add your ContactUs group isnide 'allow roles' element, they'll be able to access epi edit mode.

Check in admin mode if you have webeditors set in to have editing accesrights. You should use the WebEditors or some other group set in web.config as descripbed above. Then you create a new group in adminmode i.e ContactUsEditors. This group you will use to add accessrights to edit specific content. The "WebEditors"-group is only for giving access into the system, as decribed in the previous post.

You will need to clear the access rights for WebEditors and only use that group for accessing the system and not use it to give editors specific rights to pages.

It is a common mistake to use the WebEditors to give specific editorights in the tree. There are some great information about access rights on the SDK for Editors: http://webhelp.episerver.com/CMS/7.5/EN/Default.htm#Authorization/Admin_IN_Authorization.htm%3FTocPath%3DAdministering%20the%20website%7CSetting%20access%20rights%7C_____0

Here's an explanation with images:

1. Create Contact Us group in admin mode: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/01.png

2. Click on Set Access Rights, select Contact Us page and uncheck Inherit settings from parrent item: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/02.png

3. Click on Add Users / Group and add Contact Us group: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/03.png

4. Set permissions you want and click save: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/04.png

5. Modify web.config file so that Contact Us group has access to epi edit mode: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/05.png

6. When you log in as Contact Us user, you'll be able to edit only that page: http://dcaric.com/ew-images/20140603/06.png

Hope this helps!

Many thanks - all your replies have helped a lot

Hi guys

Is it the same thing for EPi 9+?

Hi, yes it is except that you also control mediadate in the access rights tree as well.

Thanks Eric

So for giving the access to specific group we have to modify web.config?

I'm just looking a way that make CMS admin able to giving access for specific  pages to a group of editors through CMS  without modfiying the web.config 

is  it possible?
