This is entirely wrong. If you touch the ZMI permissions on individual content you are doing bad. Please don't do bad. Doing bad hurts you and us - because you are using the software wrong and will give Plone a bad reputation.
Two ways to accomplish what you want: - Use workflow for you content type! - Create a new "Factory Type Info" in the portal_types folder called CliffsFolder - Then copy and paste the folder_workflow and create cliffs_workflow and assign the workflow to CliffsFolder only. Then have the initial state of the cliffs_workflow folder be the correct permissions. - Let people create the new content types; if more people want to have different roles use the Sharing tab on the folder! Lets all stop doing bad in 2006! Alan Runyan p.s. I'm joking - I imagine you don't know about portal_types/portal_workflow and I know your not consciously doing bad *wink* > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cliff Williams > Sent: Sunday, January 01, 2006 9:58 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Setup] Permissions > > Is there a way to affect the creation of new content under a > folder such that it is created with permissions as > restrictive as the parent by default? > > I've having a problem where by I've created a "Member Only" > section of a > site and the members can upload documents to eachother. > I've set the folder's permissions to not be viewable by > anonymous but the documents themselves are.
