websites created using wcms are not available in the SmartEdit

[Former Member]

I have created few sites using cmscockpit https://help.hybris.com/6.5.0/hcd/8b9cb8db86691014a06aa507d5eeb251.html

Unfortunately, those sites are not available in the smartEdit . Is there any other config that I need to do? Note - OOTB websites are showing up in the SmartEdit

Hello. You have to assign users and user groups to the content catalogs of your website in order to be able to edit them in SmartEdit. We added permissions in release 6.4. When you create a website in the WCMS Cockpit, permissions aren't added to it. You assign permissions to your content catalogs in the Backoffice Administration Cockpit:

1. Log Into the Backoffice Admin Cockit (https://localhost:9002/backoffice).

2. Go to WCMS > Website.

3. Double-click on the website you created in the WCMS Cockpit. It's data is loaded in the lower part of window.

4. With Properties tab info displayed, go to Content Catalogs area and double-click on the content catalog of your website. Edit Item window appears.

5. Go to Versions of this Catalog area and double-click on the version of the content catalog that you want to assign users & user groups to. Edit Items window for Content Catalog version appears

6. Click the Permissions tab then scroll to the Permissions area.

7. Under the User Accounts with Write Permission list, click the more (...) button. A list of users and user groups is displayed in the Reference Search window.

8. Scroll through the list to find your user account or the user group that you are associated to.

9. Click the checkmark next to the user account or user group to select it. The Select button is actived when you select user account or user group.

10. Click the Select button. The search window is dismissed and you're returned to the Edit Item window. The accounts you selected appear in the permissions' list.

11. Click the Save button. Now go to SmartEdit and you should see your website in the Your Site pulldown list. It worked for me.

For information about permissions in SmartEdit, see User Accounts and Usergroups in SmartEdit.

This should work. Regards, Anne
