[closed] combo change status in fronted or backend

Hello,
with joomla 3.3 and flexi r1974
My validators can change status of some few categories.
They can use small icon to change status

But they can't use combo box to change status in fronted or in backend ...

Then, when they received a notification they can't validate ...
Thanks for your help

In french :
Mes valideurs ont les droits de changer le statut sur quelques catégories peuvent utiliser les barres d'icones pour changer de statut mais ils ne peuvent pas utiliser les listes déroulantes en fronted ou en backend ...
Ce n'est pas pratique quand ils reçoivent une notification par mail puisqu'ils ne peuvent pas changer le statut

Merci de votre aide

Hello

you mean change the state of items, right? and not of categories ?

so you have wrong permssions being used ??



according to permissions,

which of the these 2 is correct, the state selector in the item form or in the item listing of items manager ?

Thanks to help to find right expressions ...
The first picture "state selector listing in item listing of item manager" is correct.

That's the item selector in item form is wrong ...
I don't find why.
Thanks again

I find that to use the item form state selector, i must authorize it in joomla general permissions "edit state authorized"
But if i authorized it, state editor item form get only few choice, not all :

Thanks for your help

Hello

yes this was done deliberately,
normal users must not use these states manually
(especially in frontend) :

- pending approval
- draft

i see the confusion, we should remove these states from the state-selector too, and allow only admin to use them
