Missing Actions Menu For Content Nodes

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 7
What is required in order for the Actions menu to be visible to a user group? I have a site that has a custom user group which restricts a particular user groups actions & content/media access but the site also has a custom menu action which they should be able to access but can't because the action menu does not appear?

The user group has the following permissions enabled:

Administration
- Audit Trail
Content
- Browse Node
- Delete
- Create
- Publish
- Update
Other
- Custom Action
Structure
- Copy
- Move
- Sort
In the umbracoeditormenu.directive.js I see the following:
```
  var directive = {
     restrict: 'E',
     replace: true,
     templateUrl: 'views/components/editor/umb-editor-menu.html',
     link: link,
     scope: {
        currentNode: "=",
        currentSection: "@"
     }
  };
```
At a guess, does restrict: 'E' mean that it is restricted to members of the Editor group only? If so I will raise this as an issue on the tracker because it should be more flexible than that in my opinion as you can't assume that all installs want or need to use the OOTB user groups.

Thanks, Simon

I guess that 'E' is mean ELEMENT in AngularJS. All permission managed in user/group settings in Umbraco Backoffice

OK, so not what I thought - thanks

Yes, thanks, that is how I configured the above permissions but that doesn't help me solve the problem. Something is causing the entire menu to be hidden despite the group having permissions that should appear in the menu.

I'm still fighting with this unfortunately. There is another directive umb-editor-header which contains the following:
```
<umb-editor-menu
    data-element="editor-actions"
    ng-if="menu.currentNode"
    current-node="menu.currentNode"
    current-section="{{menu.currentSection}}">
</umb-editor-menu>
```
If I remove the attribute ng-if="menu.currentNode" then I see the action button but I get no options. Progress of sorts! But...I can't for the life of me find out why this is as the directive is setting menu: '=' and as a result, it stands to reason that it should never be visible?
