When you admit users to Publisher, you grant them permission to perform predetermined tasks by assigning roles, and you assign them roles by folder. For example, you can allow a user to access content in some folders but not others.
The actions that users are able to perform are defined by the role each user is assigned in the folder. For information on Publisher roles see Roles and Permissions.
You can have the folder inherit the security settings of its parent folder. Changes made to the security settings of the parent folder cascade to all subfolders.
Alternatively, you can give subfolders security settings that are independent from the parent folder. If you release the subfolder from inheriting the security of its parent folder, you exempt it from any future security changes made on its parent folder. For more information, see Content Security.
