How do I prevent access to system options (publish/index)
How do I prevent users from being able to un-check the publish/index check boxes under edit > system. (howdoi.png)
I have setup users and roles.
I have a user who is part of a group (arts) which has 'read access' (site) role and can only access select folders.
The site - read only role, has nothing enabled
(user.png)
His role also has a global "read only role" - which has no permissions with the exception of:
View the Versions tab: Enabled
View users that share groups with current user: Enabled
View groups to which current user belongs: Enabled
I added the global role, even though we're using site roles since we needed one. (Read only.docx)
Within in the site tree, I have granted read access to the group, and then on one file, I have granted write access to the one user so he can edit his profile. (see "set permissions.png")
I guess what I need to know is, given the user has "write" access to items, but his group/role doesn't have anything other than read access, how is what he has write access to (parts of page/ data definition etc) determined, and how would I be able to prevent the user from being able to disable publishing or indexing?
Thanks very much!
Brendon

Hi Brendon,
In short, if a user has write access to an asset, he/she will have the ability to modify the system options you mentioned. I did find this related feature request on our Idea Exchange that I would encourage you to vote/comment on when you have the chance.
Let me know if you have any additional questions and I'll be happy to answer them.
Thanks!
