Here's how I tested:</p> <p>Granted a user read access to the top level site.<br /> Split off the permissions of a sub-site, and removed that user from the site level permissions.<br /> Edited the permissions of a document library on that sub-site, and granted that user Read access to that doc library.</p> <p>Logged in as that user, and YES, in a CQWP on the top level site, they CAN see the documents in the library that they have READ access to.</p> <p>Does this answer your questions?</p> <p>Laura Rogers<br /> <a href="http://spinsiders.com/laurar" rel="nofollow">http://spinsiders.com/laurar</a> </p> NancyCentury on "CQWP - is permission required to source site" http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/topic/cqwp-is-permission-required-to-source-site#post-3833 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 12:59:30 +0000 NancyCentury 3833@http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/ <p>I'd love to know the answer to this as well. </p> candyro on "CQWP - is permission required to source site" http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/topic/cqwp-is-permission-required-to-source-site#post-3826 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 11:01:14 +0000 candyro 3826@http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/ <p>On a top-level portal page, I would like to use a CQWP to display, for a targeted audience, a filtered subset of documents from a sub-site document library. The targeted audience has permission to the portal, but can not have permission to the sub-site. Will they still be able to click active links in the CQWP and view the documents? I have actually implemented the CQWP and it filters well (though my next task is figuring out how to display one of my content type columns). In my environment, I am unable to create a test user with the limited permission to see if this will work, so if someone can shed light, that would be great. If this configuration will not allow the targeted audience to see the documents, other suggestions would be welcome. </p>
