manager mode – works with admin, not with other users

  • Hi Thom,

    An issue with Manager Mode. It works for me as “administrator”, but it doesn’t for “user_moe”.

    The weird thing is, as an administrator, i am in manager mode for both tabs “FOLDER ALL” and “FOLDER MOE”, while i should be only be able to edit the first one..

    Where is my mistake ?
    (FYI, I use Formidable to generate my pages)

    [su_tabs active="1"]
<h4>[su_tab title="FOLDER ALL"]</h4>
[fileaway drawerid="1" type="table" sub="[220]/all" makedir="true" encryption="on" manager="on" dirman_access="administrator"]
[fileup sub="[220]/all" matchdrawer="true" fixedlocation="true" showto="administrator"]
[/su_tab]
<h4>[su_tab title="FOLDER MOE"]</h4>
[fileaway drawerid="2" type="table" sub="[220]/MOE" makedir="true" encryption="on" manager="on" dirman_access="user_moe"]
[fileup sub="[220]/MOE" matchdrawer="true" fixedlocation="true" showto="user_moe"]
[fileup sub="[220]/MOE" matchdrawer="true" fixedlocation="true" showto="administrator"]
[/su_tab]
[/su_tabs]

    Thank you if you can enlighten me!

    I don’t think you understand how it works.

    If manager mode is on in the shortcode, administrators will always have manager mode on that table.

    In your File Away settings page, under the Manager Mode tab, you can specify other user roles or user ids who will always have manager mode access if manager mode is enabled on the table.

    If you only want to give them Manager Mode access on a specific manager mode table, then you have to use your override password in the shortcode (established on the File Away settings page), then specify the user ids or user roles to whom you are granting manager mode access.

    All of this is explained in detail in the tutorials, both on the shortcode generator and in the Tutorials tab of the settings page.

    dirman_access has only to do with the ability to edit directory names, not with manager mode itself.
