Hi,

Everything seemed to work perfectly as a super admin and as a regular admin until I tried to edit an entry created by the super admin or another admin.

Despite having checked everything that I could find I get the following error message :
You are not authorized to perform this action

In the Member Group Settings, under Channel Posting Privileges I have :

Can view channel entries authored by others: Yes
Can delete their own channel entries: Yes
Can edit entries authored by others: Yes
Can delete channel entries authored by others: Yes
Can change the author name when posting channel entries: No
Can edit and add new categories: No
Can delete categories: No

Since I can access the page and edit it, I don’t see any other setting that could prevent me from updating the changes.

Any idea ? What did I miss ?

Can anyone help ?

The site has to go live soon and any change afterward will be much more difficult.

Just in case it changes anything here is a list of the plugins I uses :

- Matrix
- NSM Channels
- Structure
- Date/Time Language Converter
- Hacksaw
- P&T Switch
- Switchee
- YearList

Does it say that after you edit the entry and hit submit? If so, do the changes go through when you go back and look at the entry?

Could the error be as a result of redirecting to Structure and the Admin member group not having permission to view Structure?

Hi Jason,

Yes the message appears after you submit the changes and from what I have seen the changes don’t go through.

I do redirect the Admin and Super Admin to Structure from the start so if the Admin didn’t have permission to view Structure the troubles would start at login I guess.

The only thing I can think of to try is to go to “Members > Member Groups” and create a new member group based on Super Admins. Then see if that new member group has the same issue.

If not, move all your Admin accounts into the new member group, and customize permissions accordingly.

Thank you for the suggestion, I’ll try it.

The support team is now also looking it up, so it should be resolved soon and I’ll post the result.
