Hi,

I am having a slight permissions issue at the moment. I have two users set up currently, one is an administrator and the other is a content administrator. The admin has permission across the site to edit all parts of the site but the content admin has permission to edit everything apart from a custom module I created. The custom module simply contains a bit of custom html plus the standard html module and when I click 'edit' when logged in as an administrator it works fine but when i'm logged in as a content administrator I get the following permissions error:

Sorry, you are not allowed to view this content. If you have questions about your permissions, please contact a site administrator.
Either you are not currently logged in, or you do not have access to this page within the site. Please contact the site administrator to obtain access.

I have checked the permission settings on that module and they are the same as all the other modules but for some reason this one wont let me edit it as a content administrator.

When using a custom module do I need to set permissions somewhere else other than under the settings tab?

Thanks

Damian

Hi Joe,

The reason for putting the html module within the custom module was so I could replicate it across several pages therefore when updates were made to the html content it would replicate across all pages that contain the custom module rather than just the page you are updating. Is there any other way to achieve this so that the security features would work?

Thanks

Damian

Thanks Joe, I came across the Global Content feature just before I read your reply  I think this may well work for what I want to achieve.

I guess I jumped the gun thinking I needed to wrap it in a custom module

I must say i'm more impressed by mojoportal the more I use it, keep up the good work!
