I have a question about access to document folders.  We have a group that is assigned full access to a parent folder but for some reason they don't also have full access to the contents of the folder and the subfolders.  Do we have to manually assign access for the hundreds of items in these folders?

You need to check the "Cascade" box before saving the permissions. That ensures that all current and future objects in your folder structure will inherit this permission.

Note that the "Cascade" option is not a setting and therefore cannot be persisted. It is rather a one-time option that is used during management of your permissions and not as a visual reference for subsequent visits to the Access page.

Also note that we are updating the Access page with a new interface that should make it a lot more intuitive to work with.
