AEm 6.2. Design mode for authors

Hi,

I have created a user and added him as a member to content-authors group. I am not able to see the design mode for this user in sideckick or in touchUI. I am using AEM 6.2. Can you tell me if the ACL permissions need to be changed for this group?

Thanks,

Dhiraj

Have tried with the default author user as well. Same issue. Can somebody help with the appropriate ACLs that can help resolve this issue?

 

Hi 

I can reproduce the behavior mentioned by you on AEM 6.2. If you provide "Modify" rights to "etc/design" you can see the Design mode populating.

Please refer to the this old forum post:- http://help-forums.adobe.com/content/adobeforums/en/experience-manager-forum/adobe-experience-manager.topic.html/forum__jqoy-users_then_wouldntb.html

Note:- Strange thing is, on instance 6.1, content-author group can see design mode. I am not sure what permission is needed for design mode but using "modify" rights on "etc/design" will work for you. 

 

Thanks and Regards

    Hi,

    I have created the user and added in content-author group and tested with the created User id. It works for me. I am able to see the design mode for the particular user in Sidekick and also in Touch UI.

    Thanks,
    Ratna Kumar.
