Cannot post news!??

Hi,

I have succesfully installed XOOPS and it works perfectly for me. I use the news module and it works fine.
Now I have created an account for one of the content managers. I tested the account and I am able to post news.

The content manager however is not able to post any news. He gets the message that the database is updated succesfully but no news is actually entered in the database.

Does anyone have any clue on what is happening here? Is it possible that the configuration of his computer causes the problems?

Thanks, basby.

Yeah, make sure the group he is in has permission to see the content of that module.

For example, if he is part of the registered members group that group needs to have view permissions.

Go to admin>system>>groups and check group module access permissions etc.

also, stuff submited by admins is auto approved. stuff posted by other groups requires approval unless you enabled auto approve for all.

Thanks for your quick reply!

I have used his account (logged in using it) and I was able to submit news. That's why I think its not the permissions of the account (or group). Or do I mis something?

This probably has to do with his/her Firewall settings. Make sure to tell your content manager to enable the referers for his/her browser as well as accept the cookies set by XOOPS. Also, tell him/her that JavaScript needs to be turned on. That is about it :)

Problem resolved! It appeared to be an incorrect JavaScript setting: he had to switch it on.

Thanks again!
