I need to allow a webmaster to access /admin/reports/linkchecker. In linkchecker module I have added a permission Access broken links report to allow this. This is not security releated...
But now this webmaster role must have no permission to 'access site reports' and I do not like to provide this to the webmasters as the 'access site reports' permission has security implications... per help text.
Why is the top level Reports menu not shown if there is a menu point below where the user has access permission? How can this implemented?
I have seen this works well with /admin/structure/contact as a compareable example.
Other broken permissions are:
Change 'access arguments' to 'access administration pages' on top level menu item. This will enable the Reports menu if I have access to any of the submenus (expected behaiviour).
$items['admin/reports'] = array(
'title' => 'Reports',
'description' => 'View reports, updates, and errors.',
'page callback' => 'system_admin_menu_block_page',
'access arguments' => array('access administration pages'),
'weight' => 5,
'position' => 'left',
'file' => 'system.admin.inc',
);

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
I am changing this issue to a task, since also 📌 Allow access to admin/reports based on the 'access administration pages' permission Needs work is a task. Since that issue has not been fixed, this issue should be postponed on that.
