Epic #90674: Backend UI not reflecting permissions
Workspace-Preview for Non-Admin Users not working correctly for extbase content
Added by Arne Bippes about 8 years ago.
Updated over 2 years ago.
Description
First Scenario for a non admin user:
- User changes some extbase content within a workspace
- User changes a standard text only element
- he than creates a preview link and logs out¶
Expected behaviour:
- opening a page which uses the changed content shows the workspace changes for both elements
=> WORKING CORRECTLY
Second Scenario:
- before logging out the user switches back to the Live view¶
Expected behaviour:
- opening a page which uses the changed content shows the workspace changes for both elements
Actual behaviour:
=> STANDARD ELEMENT WORKING - the user sees the changed text-element
=> EXTBASE ELEMENT NOT WORKING - the user does not see the changed extbase content (he sees the live version content)
Third Scenario
- the user which created the preview link and still being in live mode is made admin
Expected behaviour:
- opening a page which uses the changed content shows the workspace changes for both elements
=> WORKING CORRECTLY¶
The conclusion is that once a User has left the Workspace where he has generated the preview link, extbase content is not selected from the workspace anymore. As an admin-user it works as expected.
- Target version deleted (
6.2.18)
- Status changed from New to Needs Feedback
This issue is very old and I apologize for the late answer;
Is it possible to have an example of this behavior?
I tried to reproduce it but I think I failed; I tried the following test
test environment¶
- TYPO3 9.5.13
- a "Draft" workspace has been created
- in LIVE workspace, create a "TEST" page with a text element in it
- installed EXT:news
- created a sysfolder, added some "news" elements (LIVE workspace)
- created a "NEWS" and a "DETAIL" page for displaying the news.
- there is an "editor" with access to all pages, sysfolder and the workspace.
test 1 procedure¶
- log in with "editor", switch to Draft workspace
- edit the element in "TEST" page, save and close
- go to workspace module, go to "TEST" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 1 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview
- the workspace version of the element is shown
test 2 procedure¶
- log in with "editor", switch to Draft workspace
- go to sysfolder and edit a news element, edit the title and the text
- go to workspace module, go to "NEWS" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 2 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview
- the list of news shows the workspace version of the news title
- if I click on the news, the detail view shows the LIVE version
addendum¶
- the behavior is the same if I repeat the tests with an admin user instead of editor user
- the behavior is the same if the news plugin is configued for list/detail view on the same page
- when I visit the news detail I am leaving the workspace preview so I think that the behavior can be considered correct
Is this the expected behavior? A different test is necessary?
- Parent task set to #90674
I've repeated the test done on my previous comment on TYPO3 10.4.19
test environment¶
- TYPO3 9.5.13
- a "Draft" workspace has been created
- in LIVE workspace, create a "TEST" page with a text element in it
- installed EXT:news
- created a sysfolder, added some "news" elements (LIVE workspace)
- created a "NEWS" page for displaying the news (configuration with single page).
- there is an "editor" with access to all pages, sysfolder and the workspace.
test 1 procedure¶
- log in with "editor", switch to Draft workspace
- edit the element in "TEST" page, save and close
- go to workspace module, go to "TEST" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 1 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview (yellow box)
- the workspace version of the element is shown
test 2 procedure¶
- log in with "editor", switch to Draft workspace
- go to sysfolder and edit a news element, edit the title,the teaser text and the text of the news record
- go to workspace module, go to "NEWS" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 2 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview (yellow box)
- the list of news shows the workspace version of the news title and news teaser text
- if I click on the news, the detail view shows the workspace version
addendum 1¶
the behavior is the same if I repeat the tests with an admin user instead of editor user; I also performed with the admin user the following tests:
test 3 procedure¶
- log in with "admin user", switch to Draft workspace
- create a new text element in "TEST" page, save and close
- go to workspace module, go to "TEST" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 3 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview (yellow box)
- the workspace version of the page is shown, with the added text element
test 4 procedure¶
- log in with "admin", switch to Draft workspace
- go to sysfolder and create an additional news element, edit the title, the teaser text and the text of the news record
- go to workspace module, go to "NEWS" page, generate the preview link
- switch back to LIVE workspace
- log out
- visit the preview link
test 4 result¶
- the upper right corner shows that I am looking at a workspace preview (yellow box)
- the list of news shows also the news created in the workspace
- if I click on the news, the detail view shows the detail page of the news (with the workspace version of course).
Addendum 2¶
- as far as I have seen you can "leave" the workspace version by clicking on the "Stop preview" link in the yellow box
- if you visit the live link of the page, you're still viewing the workspace version (I guess there's a cookie involved); you can view the live version by closing the session and start a new browser (for example).
is this test sufficient or a different one should be performed?
- Status changed from Needs Feedback to Closed
Based on the results of my last comment and since there hasn't been feedback since a long time, I close this issue for now.
There's an odd behavior left that I summarized in my comment on "addendum 2", for which I will open a new issue.
If you think that this is the wrong decision or experience this issue again or think that there is still work to do, please reopen it or open a new issue with a reference to this one.
Thank you.
