    Hello,
    Recently, a very strange thing is happening:

    I create a new post and in the Access panel of the post editor, I grant access to Groups B, C and D (but not A). I save the post, and when I re-access the post, the Access panel shows that Group A is selected, but disabled, so that I can’t deselect it. By the name of the group is [LR].
    I have no idea why this is happening or even what [LR] is; I use [L] for the “locked” indicator, not [LR].
    Also when I view the post on the site under my administrator account, the note at the bottom reads Assigned Groups: A, B, C, D. However, under my group A account, the post is nowhere to be found, as intended.
    Does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks,
    Michael

  • Hi,
    Unfortunately I can’t help but want to report that I experience the same issue.
    I even changed the [L] for the “locked” indicator into [User] but occasionally I also recognize that for a new post a group is unintentionally selected but with a disabled tick box with an [LR] indicator and hence can’t be deselected anymore.
    Potentionally this seems to be a bug of the release. Any support on this is highly appreciated.
    Thanks, Klaus

    Hi, it’s me again.
    After posting my reply I now can solve the issue why the post had an marked but disabled check box [LR] indicator and hence couldn’t be deselected anymore.
    When reviewing the post categories I recognized that a specific category also had associated UAM groups. One of these groups was the one which in the post was the disabled group. Now, I deselected this group for the given post category and as a result in the post the former disabled but marked box was unchecked and clear.
    Having this in mind, the [LR] seem to be a “locked as a result” indicator.
    Hope this helps others to work fine with UMA too.
    Best Regards, Klaus

    I’d be glad to, but I never found anything that did everything this plugin does, so when it broke a few months after I started this thread, I stopped restricting access based on groups. Now my site access is based on one simple question: “Member or not?”. For that, I use JonRadio Private Site.

    Please, review it. I solve the problem, with assign users by create new role and add groups to user manually.
    It′s great plugin, working perfectly, but some bugs are included :-(.

    That only a hint for admins and can be adjusted at the option.
