Category permissions

posts: 6

Hi all,

I was wondering if someone could help with a Category permissions problem I have?

In a new install I have created a basic Category structure and assigned categories to some pages. Unfortunately as soon as I assign a category, Registered users can no longer use the "print" icon as it returns access denied. I also loose edit ability at the top of the page but not at sections.

I have assigned the following rights to the categories for the registered group (no other permissions to choose from)
tiki_p_admin_categories
tiki_p_view_categories

I can work around this by assigning tiki_p_view and tiki_p_edit at the page level but this is hardly practicle.

Has nayone else run into this issue?

Any help would be good.

Thanks,

David

After a bit of trial and error I got this to work if I give the Registered Group the "tiki_p_admin" permission. I am hoping there is another way of resolving this?

Thanks,

David

First try going to tiki-admin_system.php page and clearing the /temp/cache/. You should now see four permissions on category permissions pages. In which case you need to verify that your registered user group has tiki_p_view_categorized and tiki_p_edit_categorized for each appropriate category.

Alternatively, you can give those permissions globally to the registered users group, as a whole, if it's the same for most categories. But note that the changes won't propagate to the existing categories (that I know of), so you'll have to verify the permissions of each category.

Thank you very much, clearing the cache did the trick smile
