Hi,

I am the site owner of a publishing site collection but am not able to publish or approve a page.

I have permission to edit a page but do not have the options to publish, only to start a workflow or send for approval.

Obviously, as the site owner i would imagine i would have full permissions... (?) I have exactly the same permissions on a collaboration portal and i am able to publish as expected.

Anybody seen this before?

Cheers, Ste.

add yourself into the approvers group.

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah, I've tried this with no success.

I create my web application and then create a site collection using the "Publishing Portal".

No matter what privilages I set to a user they cannot see any "Publish" button. They have to submit pages for approval. I tried this several times on different set-ups with the same result.

However, when I create a "Collaboration Portal" this behaves as I would expect with the appropriate accounts have the "Publish" button.

Cheers, Ste.

PROBLEM SOLVED - The "Publishing Portal" had approval workflow switched on as default. I have removed this workflow from the pages document library. All site owners now see the "Publish" button.
