[Bug]: DNN Resource Manager Permissions Broken

Is there an existing issue for this?

What happened?

When assigning a Role (for example: Site Manager) to a folder in the DNN Resource Manager with permissions to View, Browse, and Write to the Folder, the newly assigned User with that particular Role should now have editing abilities/access to the top toolbar options.

Steps to reproduce?

As an Admin

1. Make a custom folder (logos was the folder I edited) or use one of the default ones
2. Right-click the folder and select Edit > Permissions Tab (Note: This is broken too. I can only access the options by using the Tab button and guessing what the icons mean)
3. Switch Filter By Group: All Roles and Select Role: Site Manager (or whatever custom Role) > Add button
4. Check all the Role Permissions boxes (View, Browse, and Write to Folder) for the Site Manager Role
5. Save

Switch to Site Manager Role/Account

1. Go to the same Folder you edited on the Admin side
2. This user should see new editing options (Add Folder, Upload in the top toolbar), but they do not. They only show the option to view files that exist in the folder.

Current Behavior

When assigning a Role (for example: Site Manager) to a folder in the DNN Resource Manager with permissions to View, Browse, and Write to the Folder, the newly assigned User with that particular Role does not see editing tools. The applied updates to the Role are not retained once tested by switching to the Site Manager account. I expect the permissions to update once I refresh the page or switch users/roles so that I can add materials to the Folder as a User without Admin privileges.

Expected Behavior

Covered above, thanks!

I tried this on another project on a site running DNN v9.13.07 and verified this. Also, in the video you can see the console output showing that the problems are errors in the front-end in JS and related to the permissions (object).

This video demonstrates that you cannot add a Role to a folder using the Resource Manager.

Additional problems visible in the video:

• when right-clicking on a folder, the context menu is placed far away (below) from the point-of-click, enough down the page that we've seen problems with the context menu being off-screen and not reachable with no option to scroll.
• the animated open-modal transition stutters, is there a setting to disable these animations?
• clicking the empty checkboxes weirdly cycles to Deny icon first, it should go to Checked icon first (maybe this is already fixed in Dnn-Elements but not in DNN yet?)
