Hi,

We've been testing the new 4.00.02 release on our staging server and have found an interesting little problem with it. Our production and staging instances are both 4.8.4 and the existing version of announcements is 4.00.01

Straight after we upgrade we've noticed that the pencil icon gets displayed with the item even when the mode is set to view. Even worse is when we logout of the portal, it appears that the edit icon is displayed to non-logged in users. We've tried deleting the test instance and created a new one from our current production environment, but have the same problem. We tried removing the [EDIT] token from the item template, but it gets inserted back next to the [TITLE] (which we expected).

Anyone else seen this behaviour before? Or is it a known bug? Currently searching gemini for it.

Cheers Wayne

ok well.. the issue is confirmed. This is what is going on:

  • i am using PortalSecurity.HasNecessaryPermission(Security.SecurityAccessLevel.Edit  ... to check whether the logged in user has edit rights for the items in the module
  • the issue is that HasNecessaryPermission also returns true when the page is in view mode
  • the problem is that when the page is in view mode, the output content is used to fill the cache of the modules that have caching enabled.
  • i was able to fix the issue by adding an extra check that checks on the viewmode of the page

current workaround: disable caching of the module (in module settings)

Thanks Erik for the quick response and suggested work around. Will try the workaround and see how we go.
