Hi again,

So we have a custom member group set up for content admins. Basically, they have access to just about everything except templates. The User Authors tab doesn’t display for them however. I logged in with one of their accounts to verify this. The member group has access to all Modules (including User). I can even browse to the Extensions manager under their account and see that the tab titles are in place (the problem I had yesterday).

Any suggestions? The tab seems to only be available to Super Admins.

Thanks!

Phil

Looks like this is where the problem is (around line 335 in ext.user_authors_ext.php)…

/** ----------------------------------------
/** Check group permission
/** ----------------------------------------*/

  if ( $SESS->userdata('group_id') != '1' )
  {
   $query = $DB->query( "SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM exp_module_member_groups mg LEFT JOIN exp_modules m ON 
m.module_id = mg.module_id WHERE m.module_name = 'Simple_commerce' AND mg.group_id = '".$DB->escape_str( 
$SESS->userdata('group_id') )."'" );

   if ( $query->row['count'] == 0 )
   {
 return FALSE;
   }
  }

The extension is checking for Simple commerce module access if the user is not a Super Admin to decide whether or not to show the user author tab on the entry form.

I changed m.module_name = ‘Simple_commerce’ to m.module_name = ‘User’ and it worked.
