Security Question (moving folders, manage_changeProperties)
Hi All, Ive created a Product on my site that clones a file, then changes its properties and places the new file into whatever folder Im accessing that Product from. It was working fine until I moved a bunch of folders. Basically, In the root folder I had a folder called website, then within that, folders called topstories, sports, weather etc. I copied the topstories, sports, weather folders to the root directory and then deleted the website folder. Now when I go into the sports folder, for instance and try to use the Product I made, I get a message saying "you are not authorized to access manage_changeProperties". I am listed as a Manager of the site though, and seem to have full permission to do anything. I have discussed this with the superuser and we can't figure out why this happening.

Here's something Michel Pelletier posted back in July:
Someone reported the bug that 'manage_changeProperties' was not protected by the security mechanisms. This is now fixed. I couldn't find the report on the list or in the Collector, so I'm just generally announcing that it now works.

I wonder if the fact that manage_changeProperties was a latecomer to security makes it different in other ways.
