Here is an example of a component that does that. There is a button underneath the company name. The record is being displayed, but if the profile is set to being locked and I was to click on this, it will tell me that I do not have the permission to edit it. [00:07:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h07m53s) But if I click on the icon below the company name, it loads the information that I am looking for. [00:08:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h08m12s) Sometimes you want to use a custom or to do something that is not an editing view; or you would like to see the record, but not edit it. [00:08:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h08m36s)
We are back here and we are looking at permissions. So opening this permission tab, you would see that there is view edit, view edit own, view edit state, and all these have been created usually when you open this. It might [00:09:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m00s) look like that so you would set the first one and that you would see there are two options. One is core edit and one is view edit. The core edit means that you want to do a global switch. Now [00:09:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m27s) let me try and explain that by opening Component Builders options. We haven't actually looked at this yet, but it is quite important you would see that all components in Joomla you have what is called the create edit, delete edit state, edit own, it is this list of options which means that if you select this [00:09:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m56s) you know that they can't create something then it is applicable to everything in this component because it's a global setting so everything that doesn't have a view name behind it. Like this is a view name and it says access. This is a view name and it says batch use. [00:10:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h10m18s) But this says only batch use. So that's the global for batch use, and this is only related to this view. So you can say I am allowing them to do a batch function, but in this admin view I don't want to allow them to do a batch function. Or you could say [00:10:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h10m39s) you know what, I want to use inheritance. So that means I'm going to do that I want them to be able to do batch functions here and in this view. Now the reason why you can do it in two places is that you have a global switch to stop them from doing it. But you can also locally to the view tweak whether they are able to to edit do some of these features. [00:11:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m08s)
Opening the permission tab, you would see that there are view.edit, view.edit.own, view.edit.state, etc. All of these had been created. [00:09:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m00s) Setting the first one (core.edit), you would see that there are two options: core.edit and view.edit. The core.edit means that you want to do a global switch. [00:09:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m27s) Let me explain that by going to Component Builders' options. In all components in Joomla there is a list of options ('create,' 'edit,' 'delete,' etc,) which, if you select, becomes applicable to everything in this component because it's a global setting.[00:09:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m56s) Hence, everything that doesn't have a view name behind it. For example, 'Admin Views Batch Use' is a view name and is only related to this view, but this is only Use Batch which is global. [00:10:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h10m18s) I can allow the latter to do a batch function, but not the admin view. You could also select 'inheritance' which means that batch functions are allowed in both cases. [00:10:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h10m39s) The reason why you can do it in two places is that you have a global switch to stop them from doing it. You can also locally tweak the view, determining whether they are able to edit some of these features or not. [00:11:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m08s)
So coming back to the way that you would set that up. If you don't want to have a separate control for this view in relation to whether it can edit it or whether you could change it all, view it all these possibilities. [00:11:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m31s) Then you would use core. Core would mean that you would have only this one switch and if you say deny, it will automatically deny it for that view and any other view that is using core. Or core can be seen as global when you are setting it as edit view, it means that the system will generate [00:11:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m55s) a specific list of items specially just for that view. So if you look from there to there, that is for your admin view. From there to there, is for your custom admin view. Now that means what I set up this in a Component Builder, [00:12:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h12m14s) I selected view edit, and then I set it in relation to each record in relation to the whole view. And I selected both so then it will implement it for both and single record and it will implemented for your global settings.

And I selected both so then it will implement it for both and single record and it will implemented for your global settings.
Now again it might feel [00:12:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h12m34s) I won't blame you if what I have just tried to explain makes you feel confused, but really the only way for you to make sense of this is if you know how Joomla provisional structure works. So if you are using a Joomla website, and you have actually ever gone to articles [00:12:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h12m58s) and opened options and then look at their permissions, then you'd see that they only have create, edit, delete, edit state, edit own, and then these accessing of the control and this actually this big global settings. Now what we are doing, we are simply adding [00:13:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h13m17s) more control then only these default because the way this works in article manager you basically have one view. That view is articles. These other views known as categories is another view, but it isn't really has another component it's not really content. The content component [00:13:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h13m38s) And admin features is just another implementation. It's not really a whole new database. The point is you only really have two well the most two views here and so when they look at options they know that if they tweak this permission they want it to be implemented for all the views related to articles. Right well with Component Builder you are able to build components. [00:14:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m06s) That are far bigger then the content managing article manager. I'm because of that we felt that your permissions must extend that you can target a specific view and not just all of them at once. So if you want to target a specific view you will select the view edit. [00:14:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m27s) Actually this view prefix must be in your selection. If you select core that means you are saying I don't want to specifically target this view if I change it in the global settings which would be the ones without a view name in front. [00:14:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m45s) Everything from here to there those are the global settings, global export, global batch, global version, edit version, global create, delete, [00:14:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m59s) Edit, edit State. Now edit state is changing it from publish to unpublish those things edit own means you might not have edit rights but he has edit own rights. So that means whatever you create can edit again in and created by is a field so can he edit created by field or can he edit create date field. Now you'd see that this basically targets fields that are sort of the default fields. [00:15:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdSKSCTzmRA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h15m33s)
