    Super Admin User

    Hey Guys,

    It seems that I made a mistake by limitig my Super Admin User (The admin user that you register when you install umbraco) to just the "Content" node.  My question is, how do I get permission back to other nodes, ie. Users, Members, Developers, Setting Node

    Thanks

    Ryan

    Hi Ryan and welcome to our :)

    Ouch, yeah that is an issue that has been reported on the issue tracker. It should really not be possible to make that mistake and then not being able to revert it once it's done.

    I'm afraid that the only way to get the permissions working again requires modyfiyng the database.

    So if you have just made your first installation and have not done too much development I think it's safer to start over if that's an option.

    Hi Jan, 

    Thanks a lot for the prompt response.  I guess i'll be just modifying the database. 

    Thanks

    Hi Ryan

    You're welcome - If you succeed in fixing it in the DB do you then mind sharing the steps in here so others who come across the same issue can figure out how to deal with it?

    Cheers, Jan

    Sure thing Jan.  Here is the fixed I did to make it work.

    Under *Your Database Name* -> Tables ->dbo.umbracoUser2app

    Add the following fields.  (Super Admin User ID is 0, the app name is the name of the nodes, ie, content, developer etc...)

    user    app

    0        content

    0        developer

    0        media

    0        member

    0        settings

    0        users

     

    Hope this helps anyone else out.

    Thanks

    Ryan
