In the latest News module, if you edit group privileges, save and then return to edit the group privileges,the current or "old" Approve and Submit privileges are not checkmarked but the View privileges are.

-----

Longer version to clarify just in case, step-by-step: :)

Select Submit/Approve Permissions.
Change any permissions.
Submit changes.

Select Submit/Approve Permissions.
There are NO checkmarked boxes in the Approve or Submit sections. However, there ARE checkmarked boxes in the View permissions.

It would be very useful to be able to see all CURRENT privileges so you know what you are adding or deleting.

[edit to fix typo in the title]

You need to fix a XOOPS typo in the groupperm file

Fetch the fixed one here and place it in modules/system/admin

If that is the same as the one from the dev site listed in the announcement for News 1.2, then I have already installed it. I grabbed a zip file (which I presumed was correct since someone in the thread had asked for the php file to be zipped so it was easier to download) of it this morning before testing.

If it's a newer/different one then I'll check into that this evening.

Unzip the file to produce the php page and upload. It should fix everything up for you without any hassle.

Nope. Still not working on my end. I redownloaded the file linked to above and it is identical to the one that I'd placed in the /modules/system/admin directory already. Doublechecked everything.

And since I just found the boneheaded mistake I made, I'll just cross my plea for help out and say thanks instead.

Once again, operator error.

In my haste to make all my privilege changes I did not press submit for each of the three subsections. Soooo, I'd make the changes and hit submit at the bottom of the page. It recorded the changes for the View section but not the Approve or Change sections.

Thanks for your patience and my apologies for wasting your time!

Didn't read it until now, so no time wasted
