Hi all,

Thanks for your patience, please find attached the latest version of Simplify (0.0.2). This has the following features:

- Simplify now has its own tab under each Security/Group, with easy to use checkboxes - no need to use the Permissions tab, scroll through drop downs etc.

- Powerful Fields checkbox tree - Hide any page, tab or field from a group just by clicking.

- Several new permissions added:
- Hide the Draft Site link
- Hide the Published Site link
- Hide the version and link in footer
- Hide the Profile link
- Hide pages this group cannot view or edit (>> very useful, removes entries in the tree that the uses cannot view or edit (set in Access)

- Permissions can now be applied to Admin groups (including the default group)

Remember this is still in development, any issues or problems just let me know.

Regards,
Dan

froog,

Very nice, Thanks for your hard works.

Looks great.
I've come across a problem however.

I install simplify, and create some rules (the demo set for example) for a particular use group.
It works as expected if I then log in as a user in that user group, but am then unable to log in as the main admin again.

I'm probably doing something inherently wrong. Has anyone else had this?

Ta!

Hi kevino,

What do you mean by can't log in? What error are you getting? Also, letting me know what version of Silverstripe and what modules you have installed woud help.

Oh, and what options you're picking in Simplify too :)

One last thing - try restarting the browser and clearing the cache between login attempts for different group users.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

When I come to log back in as the original administrator, after changing settings for another user group, I get the error:

---
Website Error
There has been an error

The website server has not been able to respond to your request.

Contact an administrator
---

The error ^^ is in the same format as a db build error (if that makes sense).

I'm using SS 2.3.3
I've got the ecommerce, dataobject manager, and swfupload modules installed too.

I've used the demo set of settings, and also just the hide logo setting in Simplify. It works for the group I'm "simplifying", but when I log out and then log in again as the original Admin, I get the error.

If I delete the Simplify module via FTP, and rebuild, I can log in fine again.

Hi Froog, i think there is a problem with the module, when I install it in a fresh site this error appears:

[User Error] Couldn't run query: SELECT `Permission`.*, `SimplifyPermission`.*, `Permission`.ID, if(`Permission`.ClassName,`Permission`.ClassName,'Permission') AS RecordClassName FROM `Permission` LEFT JOIN `SimplifyPermission` ON `SimplifyPermission`.ID = `Permission`.ID WHERE (`Code` = 'ADMIN') ORDER BY ID LIMIT 1 Column 'ID' in order clause is ambiguous

after dev/build

other test i have made:
deleted the module, created a new user group and then added the module: this worked, i was able to enter the admin, but, then I added some permissions using simplify and logout. after that the same error appeared

kevino - add the following line to your mysite/_config .php, it will let you see a more detailed error report which you can post.

Director::set_environment_type("dev");

dospuntocero - Are you using Silverstripe 2.3.3? - I just did a fresh install and added Simplify and it works fine. Changing the default admin password may also help fix the issue you're seeing.

froog, im using 2.3.3 from svn, i have deleted the database and the same error appears :(
