Issue/Introduction

A Resource has been granted Portlet-Edit Instance rights to a specific Portlet, however when they try to edit the Portlet, it's not editable. This only occurs in environments configured for Postgres database.

 

Steps to Reproduce: 

1. Create a Portlet of any style, for example "HTML".

2. Assign the following rights to a Resource:

 

Global-

Administration - Access

Administration - Studio

Portlet - Navigate

 

Instance-

Porlet - Edit (for the new Porlet previously created)

 

3. Log in with the Resource, and access the Administration Portlet to edit the Portlet.

 

Expected Results: 

The Portlet will be editable, due to the rights assigned.

 

Actual Results:

When viewing the Porlet list, the Portlet will not be a clickable link, so it won't be possible to attempt to edit it.

Environment

Clarity Any version using Postgres Database

Cause

Resolution

This is resolved in

Workaround: 

Using a direct url to access the Portlet allows a user to edit it
