| Title | Editing permissions on a Wiki+ page is awkward |
| Status | Closed (no changes needed) |
| Handling member | Chris Graham |
| Addon | wiki |
| Description | I do not know whether this is by design.
If you edit a Wiki page and then go to the Permissions section then all the permissions except the View tick box are greyed out. To change the permissions of any of the columns you first have to go to the bottom of the column and click the +/- box which sets the same permission for all of the column, you can then set the individual permissions as expected. This is the same for all my wiki+ pages |

To the far left of each row is the preset changer. You can choose a preset to change it to start override privileges on this particular Wiki+ page.
They are not set as editable by default because the system is making it very clear they are not overridden. Overrides are only saved if explicitly set, by starting with a preset, because you don't want to inadvertently create lots of them and thus lose inheritability.
I will add a note that we could use a good tutorial here.
