Permissions for a list item
I swear I've seen where you can choose who can edit a list item but can't find it anywhere now. I want to limit the ability to edit a list item to the site owner and the user who uploaded the item and no one else. Is this possible? if so, where is the setting?

Go to : List > Settings > Advanced Settings Read access: Specify which items users can read -> Select Only their Own Edit access: Specify which items users can edit -> Select Only their Own See if this helps Pradeep

Hi, Just a small query, are you using list or library? ( the user who uploaded the item and no one else) Because you don't get this option for document library, however you can acheive this requirent using event handler for document libray. There is another method too but with some limitations. More info : http://www.moss2007.be/blogs/vandest/archive/2008/12/19/item-level-permissions-only-their-own.aspx

We are using the issue-tracking list and it doesn't have the Item-Level Permissions setting. Am I just SOL for this type of list? Also, if I used the method mentioned in the blog post, where exactly to I put the code?

Is this the same as placing the method in the ItemAdded event when creating the wsp? I built and deployed the wsp but nothing changes when I activate the feature in the site's setting...still anyone can edit.

Hello, Use the Event Handler to explore if the event handler was registered. More information here. Pradeep
