Hi,
I have modified the permission level for some users in my SharePoint site collection so that they cannot access the Manage Content and Structure.

The problem is, when they are editing a page and wish to add a link, they receive a 403 forbidden error.

Does any one know what I can do to get around this? Ideally Telerik will have developed a link manager which is along the lines of the image manager but I'm not sure if this, or something similar is available, or not.

Any help on this would be terrific so please get back as soon as you can.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,

By default, we use the Asset Picker dialog for inserting links in MOSS 2007. If you wish, you can switch to using the built-in RadEditor link dialog, which does not depend on the MOSS site permissions. Open the editor's tools file (ToolsFile.xml or ListToolsFile.xml) and replace the tool "MOSSLinkManager" with "LinkManager" (http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/removing-tools-from-toolbar.html).

Thanks for the reply.
Is there a way of allowing the RadEditor link dialogue to look up existing links in the Site Collection? Basically I wish the RadEditor link dialogue to behave similarly to the MOSSLinkManager.
Is this possible?

Hi Joe,

Currently it is not possible to use the built-in RadEditor link manager and browse for existing links in the Site Collection. We plan to add this functionality in the next RadEditor for MOSS release. You can use the editor's Document Manager dialog to browse the SharePoint libraries if you configure it appropriately (e.g. add *.aspx to the allowed extensions, set the DocumentsPaths property to the names of the libraries you want to browse, etc.).

Create a Content Contributor Custom Permission Level.

Added SitePermissions:"BrowseDirectories", to the Content Contributor Custom PermissionLevel + Other Permissions.


Add the members to created a new Group Called Content Contributor and enable Content Contributor Permission.
