In most boards, I’ve set up custom views. I am the board owner and overall admin of the system.
I’ve locked down the views, and set the board permissions to “Only edit content” for members). Yet I have one particular user who can over-ride this. He happens to be the Managing Director (not that this should make any difference), but I‘ve been unable to identify how he’s able to override or unlock the Views, and associated View configuration.
He’s able to change the conditional formatting, change the filtering, the group-by settings, turn off the view lock, and so on, even though I’ve locked all this down.
I’m the only one who is an owner of each of these boards.
We had a situation this week where he was getting a very different display of a key View he and the team users. I logged in as him to see what was going on. It was immediately apparent that the “Group by ..” setting was not applied on his version of the board view. That setting is a key element of the View’s configuration.
When I log in as another randomly selected user, everything is locked down. Her account can’t doing all the things the other person’s account can. She can’t disable view locks, can’t change “Group by” settings, etc.
So, my question is, where might there be some kind of permission setting that’s giving this one user the ability to take these actions? Where else should I look?
- I’ve checked the Board permissions (Members can “only edit content”).
- I’ve checked Board ownership (I am the only owner).
What else should I check?
Thank you,
