Bug #23690 Clarification Requested

Author error when submitting new entry via Channel Forms

Version: 4.3.3 Reporter: borareed

I’m working on updating my site from EE3 to EE4. I have a few channel form templates that work in EE3 but when tested in EE4, give this error:

Author: You are not authorized to perform this action

Here’s my channel form tag:

{exp:channel:form 
    channel="research-workingpapers" 
    {if (logged_in_group_description == 'super_admins')} 
    {if:else}
    author_only="yes"
    {/if}
    entry_id="{segment_3}" 
    return="authonly/edit-research-workingpapers/ENTRY_ID"
    include_jquery="no"
    include_assets="yes"
    unique_url_title="yes"
    rte_toolset_id=""
    rte_selector=""
}

The user is logged in – I can add 0 and 0 tags to the template and they are rendered with the correct ID. I have “Allow guest submissions?” turned off for this channel

I found this bug report back in EE 3 that seems related: https://expressionengine.com/support/bugs/22057/Author-You-are-not-authorized-to-perform-this-action However, I don’t want to allow guest submissions or allow users to edit entries by others so I don’t know if that patch fixes the issue in my case. Have channel forms changed in EE4?
