I’ve poked around the forum for a little while and haven’t found out what’s going on here (if there is one, a link to it is fine with me as an answer). I’ll explain.

Although first, this plugin is super. I’m really glad to have found it. I’m using it for a church website, and it’s perfect. The only thing missing is the ability to send notifications to all members (at least I haven’t found that yet. ;) ).

Ok, so I set up a user in Connections with an email address that wasn’t a user yet. Then I set up a user to use the same email address. When I logged in as that user I see the option to edit my directory listing, but when I click it I get the message “You are not authorized to edit entries. Please contact the admin if you received this message in error.”

When I look at the user in Connections, it says they’re linked properly. I expected to not see the link at all.

Is there a user setting I should set? I didn’t see that in the FAQ. Currently, the users are “Subscribers” by default. Do they need a higher level?

In case these details matter, the listing is public and approved. If there are any other details you’d need, I’ll be happy to provide.

Thanks!

@ Jason

Did you go to the Connections : Roles admin page and give the “Subscriber” role the permission to edit entries?

[Jason Jacobs]

Well that was easy… Thanks, Steven. I didn’t even see the “Roles” option down there!

Rookie mistake!

@ Jason

no problem!

If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference. Many thanks in advance!
