Sample FAQs Accordion Menu
Q: I get an error that states "You don't have the required permissions to save the asset. This usually means you've forgotten to select your folder from the "Host/Folder" field at the top of the page (above Title). User has no Add Children Permissions on selected host".
A: This error means you've forgotten to select your folder in the "Host/Folder" field (usually above Title). For example, on the website www.canr.msu.edu/support, you would select the "/support" folder. Never use a subfolder such as "/support/about", as this can lead to content being removed if a subfolder is ever deleted.
Q: I am trying to log into dotCMS but it's telling me "Authentication failed. Please try again."
A: DotCMS always uses your MSU username and password to log in. Your username is the first part of your MSU email address, before the @ symbol. If you're sure you've entered your MSU password but it's still not working, you can reset your MSU password to see if that helps (it will often fix this issue).
Q: I am trying to view CANR websites in my browser, but dotCMS will not let me log out and it keeps displaying the editing interface
A: We recommend using one web browser to view CANR websites and a different web browser to edit in dotCMS. For example, you could use Chrome to edit but use Firefox to browse. This will keep you from needing to log in and out of dotCMS all the time and help you see your websites from an external point of view.
