Do you mean in frontend ?
with which user did you login ?

if you logged as new user of usergroup "My author", then submit will not appear if user does not have global submit

- Try creating a flexicontent submit menu item and using its defaults
- Make sure that the menu items have access level "Public" or "Registered"


I create a new User group, "JET", then in FC panel, I went into Categories then over to the "Permissions" tab and changed all of the access levels for "JET" to "Allowed".. I also added the "JET" group to the "Special" User Level.


This I can workout later. More importantly right now, the menu links that are now asking to login are all single articles. I really need these to be publicly available/viewable and I can't seem to find where to fix this.

Against thanks in advance..

best regards,

Winchester

Hello


The effect you are seeing is after changing the ACL and access configuration

I mean Flexicontent and Joomla are now behaving according to the configuration that you have saved

> Any idea?

What you need to do is learn about Joomla ACL and access levels
then you can configure any component that uses ACL and access levels

Using Flexicontent assumes that you know about Joomla and how to configure ACL and access levels

Hi,

Never mind about this. I figured it out. I needed to bind it in FLEXIcontent.

Thanks.

best regards,

Hi,

I'm going to try again, but very carefully this time. I'm thinking may be I mixed a step somewhere. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Hello

it is good to gain knowledge on Joomla ACL as it will come handy again and again in the future

Just initial use is not trivial !
Try doing thing in small steps that you can undo

Then, if you need professional help for the ACL of this website you can send me a PM

Regards
