SP List permissions not propagating on item level...

[kikogeruk]

Hi all,

we have a site with standard setting, standard permissions and nothing else that after 7 years of SP work can think of that causes this behavior:

All list items on this site, in existing and new lists, completely ignore the list-level permissions. It doesn't make any difference what I set at list-level, no items adopt these. E.g.:

List permissions are set to:

• Group Owners - Full Control
• Group Members - Edit
• Group Visitors - Read
• Custom Group 1 - Read
• Custom Group 2 - Edit

But all items only have:

• Group Owners - Full Control
• Group Members - Edit

This means visitors can see the list, but no items.

The list item access settings are set correctly:

 

Like I mentioned, this happens for any existing and new list, so I don't think this is a list issue....

Any ideas? I'm stumped...

So even if you take a new list and remove custom permissions and the break permissions and add the guest group it still doesn’t work?

@Chris Webb That's right.... Even if I create a new list it doesn't work :p

Is the lock down mode site collection feature on? I’ve seen that cause some odd issues in the past.

@Chris Webb Unfortunately this is not the case. :( The feature is not enabled, neither would there have been an opportunity for the users to enable it.
