Permission over Spaces

Hi all 🙂 I'm really in trouble about permission and roles.
Log in using "admin" account i create a space in company home called "retailer" with no permission. After that i create an user "test" which have is home called "test" in "retailer" space. So when i manage space user of retailer/test i discovered that my user test has all permission. Ok this is by default, at this point i change permission from "All" to "Consumer". At this point i immagine that when i log in in alfresco with "test" account, although the space "test" is owned by "test" user, my permission over this space are read only. In fact is not in this way, user "test" can do everything.
How can i set correct permission to prevent this???  :shock:
Thanks a lot.

There is something hard to handle in Alfresco : permissions and owners.
To be quick : the user has all permissions because he still is the owner of this space.
You can log in as admin, browse to the details page of this space, and click on the action-button that will give admin ownership of this space.

As a basic hint, each time you face a problem about roles / permissions :
- of course, check the "manage invited users" screen
- check about roles inheritance
- check about permissions for GROUP_EVERYONE
- check about ownerships

Hi JayJayECL and thanks for your quicly and good answer. I must remember to set admin ownership to all users home after creating. Is it possible to automatize this process???
