Hi, i'm begining to try ejournal to see if it would suit my needs. I've just created a journal, a user and a role, assigned the role to the user, and set "ejournal-1 author" grant to the role (and nothing more).

Now there's a link to /admin/ejournal in this user's menu, and he can edit and manage the journal. I would not expect an author to be able to manage a journal. Is this a bug or is there some way to configure ejournal so that authors would not be able to manage a journal ?

Thanks a lot, and i might help the development in the near future... if i decide to use ejournal.

uhmm, ehmm, no ;-)
That is a bug. Please grab the cvs version, i have fixed it yesterday - the menu access apparently required explicit "false" return for roles, that were not granted access. If it still persits, please let me know.

btw - look at the demo site, it is fresh, rough, i have no time now - but it will give you a better idea

thanks for your quick reply ! Just a question about CVS: most of the files are marked as DEAD... is this normal ?

as i wrote in one of the cvs logs, i would need some education regarding cvs - i have deleted some files from the repository in the past, messing around with branches. I have readded them later, but that is why there is some many dead files

I am not a CVS expert either ;) How can i checkout the dead files ? So far, i've just be able to retrieve:

ejournal.css
ejournal.module
INSTALL.txt
layout_regular.inc
README.txt

with the command
# cvs checkout contributions/modules/ejournal

but i can't find how to checkout the other (dead) files in the cvs manual page...

the command should be more like this (in the current dir):
cvs -q update -d -P -r DRUPAL-5

you need to get the DRUPAL-5 branch tag

(and i will have to learn how to set the DRUPAL-5 tag to be default branch for the checkout ;-))

I think you need to: cvs update -j DRUPAL-5
