Editing categories - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support


i have site has category structure like

category tree: toplevel - games
category tree: toplevel - games - chess
category tree: toplevel - games - soccer
etc.

within categories chess , soccer want create category each club e.g.
category tree: toplevel - games - chess - acme chess club.

this category contain general information acme chess club , have series of articles club events etc. have set acl member of chess club can create, edit, delete articles within own category. cannot find way allow them edit category (and category relates club). there way this?

i suspect sobipro may but, if have understood correctly, sobipro not allow free format articles need.

any suggestions gratefully received.

thanks

lots of reads no 1 has said trying thats not possible know how it

i have set user called "chess-user" , included in user group called "chess-author".

i have created access group level called "chess-access" , included "chess-author" in it.

the menu item gives chess club front-end edit access of type "categorylist" , category "chess" access set "chess-access"

the "chess" category has public access can read chess club have say. category permissions set "chess-author" able create/delete/edit/edit state/edit own.

when log in "chess-user" can see menu item , when click through can see , edit articles within chess category , can create new articles within category. if log in else (or not login) menu item not available. working fine.

the thing "chess-user" cannot edit "chess" category. category created user "chess-user" (well created super-user "published by" field in category config set "chess-user") .

it looks if edit permissions set on category relate articles within , not category itself. if case maybe manage editting of category through permissions of parent.

the games category contains sub-categories (no articles) various clubs including "chess". therefore in games category have given permission "chess-authors" group "edit own" appears not work either.

so have missed in acl settings or not possible (which seem strange)
