Ive been trying to give a backend user access to the Simple Edit interface. I have given the user "Admin" access to an asset (having had it fail when I give a usergroup access to it), and this doesnt seem to be working.
All I get is the design template, and edit form (in the code), with no options (ie blank content).
I do not want to bump this user up to a system admin. I'm running version 3.4.4.
Cheers,
Matt
Are you certain your layout assets hold the correct keywords for displaying the editing tools for content (ie %__custom-contents%)?
It sounds rather like the layout is misconfigured rather than permissions.

Its a standard page. Do I need to define them (can I define them)? Plus its all working fine for the root user?
ah, if it's working ok for the root user, then you can probably safely ignore my post above.
Not sure if perhaps with 3.4.4 you might have to make the layouts themselves live. Also check the permissions on the layouts - possibly adding the right permissions there might help. I know with the later versions the permissions don't matter, sorry if I'm a bit vague about your version!

WooHoo!! Thanks Anthony. You were right, sent the layouts live and gave them public Read Access.
Cheers!
