@heh26,

I've uploaded a quick fix to my fork to allow you to set permissions.

I also uploaded a quick fix for the dB tables. They weren't being uninstalled correctly when the module was uninstalled.

I have several other changes to improve the module but I didn't want to include them until we're sure the permissions issue is fixed.

Please let me know if this fixes the issue you were seeing. I'll look into the issue you were seeing adding a category next.

You can see my fork at https://github.com/zyspec/jobs

Thanks to Richard for initiating the superb xswatch theme in bootsrap3 (now available in BT4), this theme really inspired me,

and thanks to Greg for producing beautiful and effective modules, and thanks to both of them for being very responsive on the issues to be addressed.

Obviously, I don't forget Michael who is always there and everywhere for XOOPS!

beautiful website! Congratulations
overall well done!

I'll try and find some time in the next few days to load this on my test server and see if I can find anything.... I'll let you know the outcome.

Here a similar problem occurred. I tried this way, unfortunately without results.

I could not reset the group's permissions in the Job Listings module (jobs_view)
This is the only information I receive when I want to grant permission to view content
When I go to the main page I receive this message: Unfortunately, you do not have permission to view this part of the website.
I have added a category to the database manually, as it also cannot be added using the button. It didn't help, I still can't give permissions to the group.

Maybe you can manually set these permissions in the database, but I don't know where ...

Please turn on XOOPS Debug and see if the system generates any errors or shows any type of dB SQL Query calls that look incorrect (text displayed in RED and showing an error). Let us know what you find.

Thank you for the link, it may seem that the module is working. But there was a problem, when adding permissions to users, I get the message: I can't change these permissions, so I can't display them on the main page of the module.


unable to reset group permissions to module task lists (views view)
