Hi,

when I add a new item, the checkboxes on the permission tab are disabled, so I can't modify them . I am lodeg in as the Portal Admin user.

How could I make the checkboxes enable?

Disabled checkboxes means there's a problem with the so-called Permission-Permissions. i.e. who can edit what type of permission. This is rare, but can happen in cases where default roles in portals have been muddled in some way. Currently the only way this can be properly analyzed is as follows:

1. Go into SQL. Look up the 'Portals' table. Open and find the record for the portal you're in.
2. Note the values for AdministratorRoleID and RegisteredUsersRoleID. These nrs correspond to role IDs in the Roles table.
3. Open the Roles table and verify that the values you wrote down are correct (i.e. you see something like 'Administrators' and 'Registered users').
4. Open DMX_Permissions and keep it open. You'll see the columns PortalId, PermissionKey and PermissionID which you'll need. We're just interested in the set of permissions for the portal ID we're analyzing.
5. Open DMX_PermissionPermissions. Note that there are 2 columns that bind things together: PermissionID and RoleId. Make sure that: (1) Administrators are tied to ADD and APPROVE, and (2) Registered Users are tied to VIEW and EDIT.
6. Finally: check the account you're using to debug here. Does it belong to the roles we've been using? All users should belong to 'Registered Users'.
