Setting Permissions to Apply Categories

How to Set Category Application Permissions | Allow specific groups and users to associate specific categories with site content.

Prerequisites: Users require site administrator permissions to complete this task.

All groups and users (as does the Everyone group) have full access to categories by default. Child categories inherit application permissions from parents. If you set no application permissions, or if you add the user or group to the CanApply Selected list, they can associate the taxonomy category and children to site content.

You can set category permissions on the Category Management or Deleted Category Management view.

Important: If groups or users lack permission to view the category, they cannot apply the categories to site content.

Important: To apply categories to content, groups and users require module authoring permissions in the specific folio.

To allow specific groups or users apply a category:

Log in to Cartella.
Navigate to Settings > Categories.
Click the category in the tree structure.
The category displays as selected, and the CanApply and CanView options display.
Click Edit for CanApply.

The CanApply dialog displays.
Optional: Select the Groups or Users tab. Enter a keyword in the Filter field to narrow options in the Available list.
