Permissions for new sub-pages.

On our site, we have a permission group called “Adult”. We set specific permissions for this group to be able to edit all pages that are assigned as a sub-page to a parent page “Downloads”. This is working as intended.

However, if we create a new page and assign it to the “Downloads” parent page, users in the permission group cannot edit the page. We have to remove and reassign the same permissions to the sub-pages of the “Downloads” page to make it work.

Are new sub-pages not given the same permissions automatically? Thanks.
