  • MetaField uses a check box tree to assign appropriate permissions.  Each permission label, corresponds with its respective area within MetaField.
  • By assigning a "check mark" on the permissions check box tree, the selected check mark will grant access to its respective area

    .

    By removing a "check mark" on the permissions check box tree, any unselected nodes, will not grant access to the respective areas.

Item to NoteExampleImage

By selecting a "parent" node permission, all children permissions will be granted.

Parent = Field (permission granted)
Children = All activities within the Field module will be granted unless an individual permission is removed.

The permissions check box tree, use a "tri-state click cycle".
  1. If a node is empty (empty state), the permission is not granted.
  2. If a node is checked (full state), that permission is granted along with all (if any), child permissions are granted as well.
  3. If a node is fully colored (mid state), that permission is granted but, it contains 1 or more child permissions that are NOT granted.
  4. Click an individual node to cycle through each state until the appropriate state is applied.

    Info
    titleSpecial Permissions

    MetaField contains certain special case permissions that will NOT be automatically applied if the parent permission is marked.  For more information, please see the Special Permissions section.
