There seem to be similar questions to this but none of those solutions worked.
I have a SharePoint list that inherits permissions from its parent. I have a test user who is part of the visitors group, having read
access permissions.
The test user can access most of the other contenton the SharePoint site. But the test user cannot view the list, any of its views, or any of its items.
If I change the user's permissions on the site to contribute
then everything works properly, but I don't want them to have read-write access.
The master page being used by the site Seattle, and it is not checked out. I tried creating a standard view
that contained only one field, the name (without edit link) and turned off individual item check-boxes. Still access denied.
The list has some calculated columns - not sure if that could be the cause.
I created a new list on the site with no fancy settings and it has the same problems.
Also, the list is configured so that everyone can see draft versions.
