Hi Cash Thanks for making contact. I expect that initially we'll be making a lot of newbie mistakes (well, I will at least, the last time I did any web development was using Zope in 2004) but I expect our plans will give Elgg a good exercising, and hopefully raise some interesting questions for you too.

Hi Cash! You mentioned earlier that you might be able to help us with Elgg. We hit a weird bug. If you create a poll limited to some group and add new members to this group, they are not able to see (and vote in) the poll. Have you seen this behaviour before? And if yes, do you know how to fix it?

Hi, Pavol
Each group has an access list associated with it. When someone joins a
group, they are added to the access list. If a poll (or discussion
topic or any other content) is set to group only, the only people who
can see it are those who are added to the access list.
1. If you create some other type of content (discussion topic, file,
etc.) and make it group only, can these group members see it? If they
cannot, something went wrong with adding them to the access list. I am
not aware of any current bugs in Elgg that would cause this but can
provide help in tracking this down.
If they can see the content, then there might be an issue with your poll plugin.
I can provide more guidance once you perform that test.
Hope this helps,
Cash

The users were added to the group by an api plugin written by us. The plugin added the users only to the entity_relationships and not the access_collection_membership, so it looked like they were member of the group, but didn't have the permissions of it. If my interpretation and patch are right, we hopefully fixed this now ;-) Greetings -- Thomas Schmidt (tom [at] opensuse.org) openSUSE Boosters Team "Don't Panic", Douglas Adams (1952 - 11.05.2001) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+help@opensuse.org
