Red home dashboard notifications items for non-SuperUsers

Post by cwdee1 » Sat Dec 07, 2024 6:44 am

The 'Home Dashboard' Notifications panel is working well for me when logged in as a SuperUser. But regular users with just Publisher permissions, see red boxes for Error on checking overrides, Unknown Joomla... and Unknown extensions...

Is this expected due to reduced permissions?

I don't want them to get concerned about these red messages, but I want to see them as a SuperUser, so I don't want to unpublish that module.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks, Chris

By default 'Publisher' does not have Admin login Permissions.
Have you been altering Permissions?

On this site, recently migrated from J3, Publisher does have Admin Interface login permission. How does that explain what I am observing?

Thanks, Chris

If you do not want Publisher users to see the notifications, go to System - Manage - Administrator Modules and find the module Notifications. Edit the module and change the field Access from Special to Super Users.
