4 TopicsDisallow Inheriting Permissions at Site Level to Site Collection Level
I have an issue wherein not all Site Owners are advanced users and managing permissions is a bit of a learning curve that for some is relatively steep. In our set up, we have a Site collection with hundreds of sites. Want: Is it possible to prevent the Delete Unique Permissions button from being enabled at a Site/SubSite level - or available only to Farm Admins? To help explain the scenario: Site Collection: myHub (for example) - Permissions set for this collection (myOwners, myMembers myVisitors) Site: mySite (myHub\mySite) - Permissions set for this site (mySiteOwners, mySiteMembers, myVisitors) Site: myOtherSite (myHub\myOtherSite) - Permissions set for this site (myOtherSiteOwners, myVisitors) Now, I currently am able to go to the Site Settings of mySite and delete unique permissions (basically scarpping anything I've done to mySite with regards to unique permissions) and as a result, mySite and myHub would not have the same permissions, managed at myHub (myOwners, myMembers myVisitors) I want to prevent that from happening. I do NOT want any site owner (only Farm Admins) to be able to inherit permissions from the Site Collection - as there is never ever ever a business case to do so. By having this functionality available (and not fully aware Site Owners), it simply results in support call after support call stating, "I can't do anything with my site anymore..." which inevitably is because they are no long Site Owners of their site - from inheriting from the Site Collection. Thanks in advance.1KViews2likes0Comments
