Permissions play an important part in accessing and performing actions in the Portal. Depending on permissions assigned by an administrator, users can either access or edit portals, pages and portlets. GateIn Portal have applied several permission levels:
Portal : The portal includes all pages, pages only can be accessed if the user has also access the Portal.
Page : You can restrict the access to single pages. Users can change page information (properties, layout) if they have the edit right.
Portlet : When users create a page, they need to drag and drop portlets into a page to create the page content. Some portlets are only used for administrators, some are used for individual needs of a group thus you have to set the appropriate access permission.
The three above permission levels helps users assign access and edit permissions clearly and flexibly.
You have to set permission for new portals as well as existing portals:
- New Portals
On the Toolbar select Site then click on the Add New Portal button, select the Permission Setting tab then the Access Permission Setting sub tab.
- Existing Portals
On the Toolbar click Site Editor then Edit Page . Click on View Page properties then select the Permission Setting tab.

Click the Add Permission button.
Select the group you want to add on the left and then select a membership type on the right. In the membership types list, means allowing any membership type.
After selecting a membership type, the selected permission is displayed in the access permission list. Each time, you only can select one group with one membership type. If you want to add more, click Add Permission and select again.
Only users who are in the portal editor group can edit that portal. Access rights can be given to several groups but edit rights can only be given to a group with a membership type (or every membership type by select ). To assign an edit permission to a user, you must add him to the editor group of the respective portal.
Use one of these following paths to assign permissions on a portal:
On the Toolbar select Site -> Add New Portal -> Permission Setting tab --> Edit Permission Setting sub tab.
On the Toolbar click Site Editor -> Edit Page -> View Page properties -> Permission Setting tab --> Edit Permission Setting sub tab.
Click Select Permission to choose a group.
Select a group and a membership type (select if you want to assign all membership types for the selected group). After selecting the membership from the right, the selected information is displayed.
Click on the Save button to accept.
In some cases, permissions on a page are initialized and users who have the edit permission can change the page.
If the owner type of a page is "user", you don't have to set permissions, no one except the creator has access and edit permissions.
If the Owner type of a page is "group", initial permissions on page are:
Access permission: everyone in that group.
Edit permission: the manager of that group.
If the Owner type of a page is portal, initial permissions are:
Access permission: users who can access that portal.
Edit permission: users who can edit that portal.
When you have access permission on a specific page, you can access that page which other users can't access it because they are not given that permission.
These following path help you quickly set access permission for a page:
Select Site Editor on the Toolbar -> Edit Page -> View Page Properties tab -> Access Permission Setting (default) sub tab.
To be able to access a page (read the page content or take an action on the page), users have to be in one of the groups that have access permission to that page. There may be several groups that have access right to a page.
