I have created the following custom permission, to allow users to be able to add items to a Issue Tracking list, but without being able to edit, read, search them:-

$spweb=Get-SPWeb -Identity "Site URL";
$spRoleDefinition = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPRoleDefinition;
$spRoleDefinition.Name = "Submit only";
$spRoleDefinition.Description = "Can submit/add forms/files/items into library or list but cannot view/edit them.";
$spRoleDefinition.BasePermissions = "AddListItems, ViewPages, ViewFormPages, Open";
$spweb.RoleDefinitions.Add($spRoleDefinition);
$spweb.Dispose();

But users having this permission level are unable to create new item, and if they click on create item link , they will get the following message:-

"This site has not been shared with you" ?

Can anyone advice please? Thanks

EDIT

I have the following web part inside my visual studio :-

 [ToolboxItemAttribute(false)]
    public partial class VisualWebPart1 : WebPart
    {
        // Uncomment the following SecurityPermission attribute only when doing Performance Profiling using
        // the Instrumentation method, and then remove the SecurityPermission attribute when the code is ready
        // for production. Because the SecurityPermission attribute bypasses the security check for callers of
        // your constructor, it's not recommended for production purposes.
        // [System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Assert, UnmanagedCode = true)]
        public VisualWebPart1()
        {
        }

            });
        }
    }
}

but i am facing these issues:-

  • if a user inside the "Risk Issue Manager" group click on create , he will see all the fields, which will be fine.
  • but if i remove him from the "Risk Issue Manager" group, then he can still see the fields !!, although inside the web part i mentioned to hide these fields ...

so can anyone advice what is causing this and how to solve it ? could this be related to caching problem? baring in mind that i am displaying the Create form inside a dialog box ? and when the web part is going to run ? each time the user click on Create button?

  • also contributors will be able to read item and view list views such as "My submission view" & "Approve/reject" view.. which in my case i want to avoid ... so seems coping from contributor is too much in my case..

try the below solution:

  1. Go to Central Admin. Click on the “Application Management” heading.

  2. Click on “Manage services on server”.

  3. Stop the service “Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web Application”. This will take a little while to stop.

  4. Start the above service again.

This should resolve the problem.
