  SOS-1154	Leaving a Private Restricted site will not refresh the screen
  SOS-1351	User cannot see membership request if invited to a private site by email.
  SOS-166	Leaving a Private Site as a Community Member displays a permissions error
  SOS-1004	User can join a open Social Office site when visiting the site.

If a user is a member of a Private site, the user is unable to leave the site.

Here are the steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Add a Private site
2. Add a Social Office user
3. Invite the Social Office user to the Private site
4. Log out
5. Log in as the new Social Office user
6. Confirm the invitation to the Private Site
7. Go to More Sites
8. Select My Sites
9. Click on the "Leave Site" icon next to the Private site
10. A message saying that the user has left the site will appear, but the user will actually still be a member of the site with full access to it

This behavior does not occur with a restricted site. A user is able to properly leave a Restricted site after clicking the Leave Site icon.

In this ticket we also change the way for our Site Creation. Another ticket will be linked to this ticket.

PASSED Manual Testing following steps 1-8 and the following step:

9. Verify that the leave button is not available for the private site.

The expected behavior is that members of a private site are unable to see the leave button (and therefore cannot leave a private site).

I think the fix was wiped out by later fix for SOS-1040 in the commit 07404b0250fc3df6d2448f322b04fd1a87b265a5:

https://github.com/liferay/liferay-plugins/commit/07404b0250fc3df6d2448f322b04fd1a87b265a5#portlets/so-portlet/docroot/sites/view_sites.jsp

Can you please test in latest CE and assign for re-fixing? Thanks.

Tracked down the issue to portal. In UserServiceImpl.java a non-admin user is not allowed to leave a private site. The permissions currently only allow for a non-admin user to leave an open-site or a restricted-site.

Product management needs to decide if this is a bug or intended feature.

For now we can fix this by hiding the button to leave site when on a private site and not an admin user.
