User permissions
A user publishing content requires view and edit permission in both the draft (source) space and the target space.
A page cannot be published by a user
if the user does not have edit permission for a source space page
if the user has view and edit permission in the source space but does not have these page permissions in the target space
If the user has permissions in the source space but not in the target space a custom publishing error message is displayed when trying to publish a page
User without edit permission in source space
If a user does not have view and edit permission for a page in the source space
the user will not be able to publish the page using single-page publishing (if enabled for the space)
Space administrator without edit permission in source space
If a space administrator does not have page view and edit permission for a page in the source space when publishing all the space content, the page will not be published.
The unpublished page is also not reported under the Pages that were not published list in the Space publishing job completed message that is added to the source space settings Publishing dashboard after all the content in the space is published.
This is because the view and edit permissions cause the page to be hidden from the Comala Publishing action for this space administrator for the restricted pages.
For details please view the space publishing page in the documentation.
Space administrator without required permissions in the target space
A space administrator user in the source space who does not have the required permissions in the target space has the source space dashboard options disabled and a message is displayed confirming that they do not have enough permissions in the target space.
If the space administrator is attempting to change from an existing target space, refreshing the dashboard page returns the dashboard display to the existing target space configuration.
The following options are disabled in the source space publishing dashboard
