I am currently logged into umbraco admin section as administrator. I want to create a new document type, and if I do this from root level then the create is avialable, but if i do this from an existing document document type no create, or reload nodes is avialable.
I have inherited the code from a 3rd party so really don't think this is a bug.
The only way I know this can be achieved is by writing code and over writing the BeforeNodeRender or something like this in C# or something.
Am i missing something? Can this be done else where without code?
Are you 100% sure that the account you have been given is the default admin account in Umbraco and not just a custom created "Administrator" account that has fewer privilleges than the default admin account?
It is possible to hide these option in the users section so that could perhaps be the reason why.
Otherwise it's hard to tell if the former devs have been doing something in their code to disable some features.
Just out of curiosity - What Umbraco version are you using?
This was far easier than i though. This was the first time i looked at the site which was version 4.5.1 and I've only been an umbraco developer really about 1.5 years i didnt know this functionality was not previously available.
You can still do it but have to create a document type at root level and then pick the master document type from a dropdown list. I was given a visual studio solution with lots of different bits and pieces and really thought they had intercepted the request....oooopsss.
