UserGroups in 1.1alpha10

[kurt]

Hi all, I am experiencing problems with regards to adding users to defined user groups.

I can't seem to find a way to add a particular user to a user group through the frontend.

Is anybody experiencing the same problem or am i doing something wrong?

Greetings,

Are the users not being added, or are you just not seeing all of the users?

UsersNotListed

When i`m in the UserGroups Screen, i select the usergroup i want to add the user, but when i click on users (on the bottom of the screen) and click update. Only the "Admin" user is added.

If i login with a different user with default permissions (Read/Write). and follow the same process, the "admin" user is added to the group and not the logged in user....

Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong

Resolution

I found a fix for this problem in the forum.

The problem is, when you want to add a user to a usergroup, you cant, because there isnt a list of users to choose from.

Here is the fix for this problem:

edit "include/forms.inc.php"
do a search for "checkbox"
look for this ["userid"]."\" \">".
replace with this ["userid"]."\" >".

this bug still exists in beta2 and should definitely be fixed... could someone have a look into it that develops the program and make the above fix permanent.

Hmmm, looking through the code, starting at line 810, I see;

                                        echo "<input type=checkbox name=\"".$row
["userid"]."\" \">".$row["alias"];
                                }
                                else
                                {
                                        echo "<input type=checkbox checked name=
\"".$row["userid"]."\" \">".$row["alias"];
                                }
                        }
                        else
                        {
                                echo "<input type=checkbox name=\"".$row["userid
"]."\" \">".$row["alias"];

I suspect this is where you are looking, however, I decided to test it using the CVS code, and everything worked correctly.

I am using 1.1beta2 and do not see a way to add users to groups.

The user "Admin" was magically added to a group and that is who I am logged in as, but I do not see a way to add other users.

See attachment.

OK. In playing around with it a little more, I noticed that I can add and remove the Admin user by clicking Change, and checking or unchecking the box and clicking Update Group.

When I log in as a user other than Admin and try to add/remove the user, it only adds/removes "Admin" as the user: not the other user!

I tried Kurt's resolution from above and got a partial fix. When I went back in as Admin (surely because my other user did not have proper useradd rights) I could create a new group and it would list all users on the system and allow me to choose who was in the group.

But after the group was created I do not seem to be able to add/remove users from the group. This will do for now.

Thanks for the help!
