Hello

I have the problem that users can publish events in a category where only create rights are set.
I am using Joomla 3.7.2 and JEvent 3.4.39

settings:

1) Use of Joomla ACL

2) 3 categories

Category A with permissions create events, edit events, publish events and delete events rights to usergroup.
Category B with permissions create events, edit own events to usergroup.
Category C without rights for users.


3) The events are accessed from the menu.

First menu entry with "List by year" and categories A and B
Second menu entry with "View by Month" and categories B and C


4) Users use the frontend

When users create an event through the first menu entry, categories A and B and the state selection are displayed in the form.
If the user now selects the combination category B and the state published, the new event iwill be published immediately. - What is not allowed to him.

It works through the second menu item and the combination of categories B and C.
Because, no state field is displayed in this combination.

I believe that in the first case, JEvent does not check setting the state for categorie B is allowed to the user.

Does anyone have any idea how I could solve this problem?

Thank you
Hello,

If users are allowed to create events globally then they can create in all categories unless you specifically Deny there usergroup for that category.

Many thanks

Hello Toni
Thanks for your quick reply.

In this case, I have understood the settings correctly.

But in my case is not that creating the problem. This is allowed to the user.
The problem is that the event is immediately published.
What is not allowed to the user.

Hello,

So in:

JEvents -> Configuration -> Permissions

have you set:

Joomla ACL Event Creation PErmissions Approach

to:

Allow event creation overall and deny by specific category

?

Many thanks

Good morning Toni


have you set:
Joomla ACL Event Creation PErmissions Approach
to:

Yes, Joomla ACL Event Creation PErmissions Approach is set to this parameter

Here you can find screenshoots to the permission settings



JEvents -> Configuration -> Permissions
permission settings category A
permission settings category B

Thank you

Related to Categories A, B, C? - no.
All categories are self-contained.
