Deleting Access Rights for One or More Groups in the Structure

If you have groups or users in the tree structure that you no longer want to have access rights, remove the entire group. There is a great difference between removing the group and removing certain levels from a certain group. If, for example, you want to change the settings so that a group will no longer be able to publish pages, you do this by changing an existing group. We remove the entire group if we have a group that should no longer have any access rights whatsoever.

  1. Select Set Access Rights on the Admin tab. The tree structure is displayed in the lower section of the window.
  2. Select the page in the tree structure for which you want to remove the group and its access rights. When the page is highlighted, the name of the page is formatted with a dark gray background.
  3. Those groups and individuals that have access rights to the highlighted page are shown with the most recently saved access rights above the structure. Select the group(s) you want to delete by clicking on the green tick on the far right.
  4. Delete the group by clicking the Delete above the groups. If you want to delete the groups for the current page and its sub pages, select the Apply settings for sub pages check box before you click Delete. If you do not select this, you will only delete the group from the highlighted page.

Remember that you only affect the groups that are highlighted. The groups that are not highlighted when you click Delete will remain unchanged, irrespective of previous settings. It is therefore important that you do not highlight a group by mistake that you do not want to delete.
