Hi all,

First of all, let me congratulate NoixACL developers for their fantastic component. I won't say it has saved my life, but my site !

Anyway, I have a problem that might be a bug or simply something impossible to do.

I would like to manage multiple publishers who will not create and edit the same articles.
I have created sections and categories for each "publisher family" and finally installed NoixACL in order to restrict access and rights.

I have decided to create "sub-publishers" usertypes which parent group is "Publisher". I thought that these new types would inherit the rights of type "Publisher" then I could filter the access.

But it didn't ! Everything is correctly filtered and my users can not go where they do not have to be. But nobody can edit articles, even the creators !

What was wrong in my customizing ?

Thank you very much in advance if you can help me.

Cheers
Bonobo

Hi Bonobo,

Now you cant make a rule "nobody can edit articles, even the creators !" but i will implement in Adapter Content ok?

Hi Joomila,

Thank you for replying so fast !!!
Well, do what you suppose to be the best ^_^.

Anyway, I have found another way to solve my problem : editing the authorization file. I write my method if it can help someone.

1 - Go to "root/www/libraries/joomla/user/authorization.php"
2 - Edit the file
3 - Find the following line:

$this->addACL( 'com_content', 'publish', 'users', 'publisher', 'content', 'all' );

4 - Add following lines just after

$this->addACL( 'com_content', 'publish', 'users', 'YOUR GROUP', 'content', 'all' );
$this->addACL( 'com_content', 'add', 'users', 'YOUR GROUP', 'content', 'all' );
$this->addACL( 'com_content', 'edit', 'users', 'YOUR GROUP', 'content', 'all' );


All will work fine after that !

Thanks again.

Bonobo

I think you can set this permission in adapter content. If not i fix this in next version of this adapter.

This hack works perfect here too

In next version you dont need this hack anymore.



Now working in access adapter he control all access from core rules from joomla you can control:
- login backend
- login frontned
- edit user
- manage user
- manage poll
- manage config
- manage media
- manage frontend content own
- manage frontend content all
and more...

Sounds great !
Hope to test it soon
