Thread:Project:Support desk/No "Protect" Tab - Logged in as Admin/reply (2)

Hi Thanks for your help,

Please go to the page Special:ListGroupRights in your wiki and check, if in the row "Administrators" it does list the "protect" right.

Yes. It says "Change protection levels and edit cascade-protected pages (protect)".

Then click the link "(list of members)" and verify that your account actually is an admin. Note that account names are case-sensitive.

Yes it's listed as an Admin and a Bureaucrat. I have tried removing the the account from the bureaucrat group (in case there was a conflict) and that didn't help.

Finally please visit a "protect-action page", e.g. with this URL in your wiki: index.php?title=Main_Page&action=protect. This will show you a form. In that form, are you actually able to change protection settings? Or can you only see the settings, but not change them?

I can see the form, I can change options in the form but if I "Confirm" the changes the page does not appear in Special:ProtectedPages.

So I guess it IS a permissions issue. Now to figure out why. :)
