Hello

in v2.2.0 r1955,

In component permissions, give to the user-group:

- Items (Item edit Form): change category assignment
- Items (Item edit Form): change secondary category assignments
- Items (Item edit Form): change featured category assignments

AND

- Categories (Item edit Form): Assign multiple categories to items



NOTE:
you can override per content type:
==> edit your content type(s) and click to open the permissions slider ...

Hello, thanks for your answer. But it is still locked. I don't know where I can set the permission to allow the user to select other cateries. So where can I set that?

(just to notify, the image of the state of the article is buggy in this version)

Hello

which FC version do you have ?


-- please go to content type and check the ACL permissions,
-- also does your user belong in more that 1 user groups?

e.g. if it "belongs" to both
- Registered
- and Managers

and you deny the above for "Registered" then giving permission to "Managers" has no effect

if you have r1955, this must be an ACL mis-configuration

I took the version you told me: v2.2.0 r1955 the release candidate.
And yes the user is in Registered, but the level access is set to registrered. So it should not be a problem?

Hello

when a user belongs to multiple groups

then
- it must be allowed in at least 1 of them
- in all other user groups, it must be either
a. allowed or
b. inherited (not set in parent (component) = soft deny) or
c. inherited (set in parent (compoent) to allow)

the above is how Joomla ACL works

if you still suspect a bug, then you may send me a PM with details
- super admin account
- username / password of your editor
- the item id of the item that i need to edit to see the problem

Regards
