Protection Configuration 

Status of Folders 

To view the protection status of a folder, select it in the page tree on the left.

You will see an overview of the folder where you can create a new access rule or edit an existing one. Existing rules can also be deleted here.

Current status of a single folder

Current status of a single folder. In this case users must be members of the frontend usergroups "Group A" or "Group D" OR might be logged into the Backend.

  • Click Create access protection to add a protection rule (only available if no rule exists yet)
  • Click Edit access protection to edit an existing protection rule
  • Click Delete access protection to delete an existing protection rule

Access rules are inherited by subfolders — unless those folders have their own access rules. Access rules of subfolders do not supplement the existing rules but replace them completely.
