ACL issue, Access Levels not respected

Hi,

I've got a problem with access rights. I've got 2 categories :
"Abonnés" only for registered user
"Vedette" public access

When i write an article with "Abonné" like main categorie and "Vedette" like sub category, all users (including public user !!!!) can view the summaries of all articles (my home page is "Vedette" category).

Flexintent version v2.0.1 r1659
Joomla version 2.5.9

post some screenshot of your ACL

Hello,

Please note that in J2.5
1. An Access View Level can assigned to many user groups
2. A user may belong to many user groups

So check
-- if your user public user (or any user that tries to access the items) belongs to more than one user group
-- if they user groups have the access level of the item

Regards

Hello,

I checked the two point. My public user has only a public access.

Thx

Ok i see what is happening


1. an item is viewable if it is assigned to at least one category with public access level
(maybe here we should only use main category
not sure ...)

2. Or if in Component/Category parameters you have set the categories to "Shown unauthorized" Items, (this setting effectively allows people to see a preview of an item that when clicked will redirect the to login or to a subscription page (configure the unauthorized landing page in Component parameters))

Hi,

1. On the subscription formulary, the comment on the main category says : "the main category is used to determinate the heritage of the rights"

2. I checked the parameter "Shown unauthorized" is set to "No".
