Hi Bill,

Those side menus should be checking which groups you are a member of 
automatically (by querying the backend/REST API when you login). They are coded 
to do so in the AdminSidebar component, starting around here: 
https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/blob/main/src/app/admin/admin-sidebar/admin-sidebar.component.ts#L133

If you look at each of the sections, they are coded to detect if you are a 
SiteAdmin (i.e. in "Administrator" group), or a Community or Collection admin 
(of any community/collection), and based on your permissions, it'll show 
appropriate menus.  So, for a SiteAdmin, all menus should be displayed.

I doubt​ it's that code that's to blame...as this is the first time I've heard 
of this behavior & it seems to work fine on demo7.dspace.org.  You may want to 
look around more closely at your logs (in case any error is occurring), and 
even look at whether the UI is throwing a client-side error...see this guide 
for finding UI errors in your browser's DevTools: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove)

My best guess is there's some sort of error occurring that's causing this 
behavior... either that, or something with your Administrator group or user 
account has gotten messed up.

Tim

Subject: [dspace-tech] administrator actions in 7.2

Configuration question I guess.

I am a member of the Administrators group.  However when I log in, most of the 
administrator actions on the sidebar are not available to me (for instance, 
create a community/collection, access control, administer workflow etc).  The 
only options available are create an item, and import/export metadata.  All 
those actions are available to me upon login in our current version, 5.10.

Can you point me to where this is configured in 7.2? Or better yet to the 
documentation (if it exists yet)?
Thanks a million,
~~Bill
