We recently imported a Portal from 4.x into 5.1.x and have noticed what appears to be a strange anomaly.

Users who are a member of the Administrator Role can login, see the Admin menu and perform updates to Site Settings, etc.  However, they cannot add Modules to a page as the 'Modules:' drop-down list in the ICONBAR Control Panel is empty.

Further investigation revealed that the Portal Administrator could not be changed from the current selection - none of the other Administrators show up in the drop-down under Site Settings.

Upon examining the database we noticed that dbo.Portals.AdministratorRoleID was set to the RoleId of a Role that was manually created in the old website rather than the Administrators Role as with all the other portals.  Changing this manually in the database then allowed us to select other members of the Administrator Role under Site Settings, Portal Administrator.

However, Administrator Role Users are still presented with an empty list in the 'Module:' drop-down under 'Add New Modules' in the ICONBAR Control Panel.  So, I presume there must be another setting that needs updating somewhere - can someone please advise?

Thanks in advance.

Environment: Windows Server 2008 x64 / IIS7.0 / DNN 5.1.3 / SQL Server 2008 x64

Lee,

go to Extensions in ADMIN menu and for each one needed explicitly grant permissions to the administrators (if already selected, save settings, if this doesn't help, grand to another role, save, revoke from other role and save again.
