[FIXED] Wrong permission check?

Ok, here is the deal

code.google.com/p/flexicontent/ ... m.php#1288

That check is giving me problems, looks like is not checking properly that is empty when an object is being passed (see this stackoverflow.com/questions/9412 ... pty-in-php )

In my case, the problem appeared when a user, that have edit state permissions on the category item, tries to save the change state from "pending approval" to "published"


So the stack would be

items.php:save()

parentclassitem.php:getForm()( code.google.com/p/flexicontent/ ... em.php#971 )

parentclassitem.php:canEditState()


For example, when I change the problematic line ( code.google.com/p/flexicontent/ ... m.php#1288 ) with

tmpItem = (array)$item;
if ( empty($item) || empty($tmpItem))


It saves correctly (it seems correctly)



What do you think?

By the way:
PHP 5.4.31
Flexicontent 2.2.0 r1910
Joomla 3.2.4

at first can udpdate to r1932 ? and re test

Tested on 1932.

Not working

Friendly bump

Hello

please give detailed instructions about steps to follow for replicating the problem,

i have not managed to replicate the issue

User "Redactor" with create, edit and edit own permissions on CategoryA. No component permissions
User "Revisor", inherit "Redactor" permissions and add "Edit state" and "Edit state own" permissions on CategoryA. No component permissions


Redactor create article inside CategoryA
Revisor can´t publish article from inside the item form (he can from item list!)

You can also see the code I told and check the variable values

Hello

Revisor can´t publish article from inside the item form (he can from item list!)

i see, will test this

PS: can add the ACL privilege (component)
"Can request Approval for any item"

so if you
1. give the above privilege to your revisor

2. and also the ACL privilege (component)
Items (Frontend Content Lists): ignore view state

3. create a menu item to point to multi-category view (do not select any category) or to category view and also show
- State filter
- Category filter

this will make better frontend for your revisors ?

We have some flexicontent deploys but none of them use heavily a frontend edition, but I think I understand what you want to get, that way the editor could change between the categories he can access and request approval for whatever he wants
