The ability to copy or move content is granted by the "Copy or Move" permission [1] (I think, but I'm not sure on this---I've not checked the code).

In addition to this users need:

- View permission on the content to be copied or moved.
- Permission to add content in the destination container.
- Moving/cutting also requires the ability to modify the original parent folder, to delete the content from that folder.

See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5226768/what-additional-privileges-does-an-editor-and-contributor-need-to-cut-and-paste

These all appear in the ZMI's Security tab.

You might be able to use borg.localroles to set permissions based on URL, or use the Sharing tab to delegate appropriate rights in specific areas of the site.

Hi,

I am using plone to create an intranet. I would like to give some of my
users cut-and-paste rights in certain parts of the folder-structure.

My first question is: where are the permissions for cutting and pasting managed?
Do these permissions appear somewhere in the ZMI?

Can I install a rule that grants the cut-and-paste permission depending on the
url of the document? (This rule should execute when Plone checks which
permissions are available for a certain document).

Sorry if I am approaching all this from the wrong angle (if you can put me on
the right track, please do)

Thanks!
Maarten
