Description
I just installed, enabled, and made it so I can administer it, but I can't find it anywhere.
#1
Go to Administer--Site configuration--Account Reminder. (admin/settings/account_reminder)
#2
The problem is, it's not showing up in Site Configuration.
#3
Was this a fresh installation? Can you verify that the database
tables were installed? You should have a table called
'account_reminder'.
Any other relevant details you can supply?
#4
I'm showing account_reminder in my database, with 0 records. Don't know if it's supposed to have any. I just reinstalled it and double checked to make sure all the files ftp'ed properly, made sure it was enabled and allowed myself to administer it and it's still not showing up under site admin. Very weird.
#5
Have you enabled permissions for the user you are trying to
view the settings page with?
admin/user/access#module-account_reminder
#6
Yeah, the option it's giving me is to "administer account reminder" which I have selected for my type of role.
#7
can you install the current dev snapshot?
http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/account_reminder-5.x-1.x-dev.tar.gz
There was a fix to a bug in the permissions ...
#8
Just installed the dev version and it's still not showing up in site configuration. Also wanted to say thanks for helping out with this.
#9
so you are unable to see anything even when you are logged in
as uid 1 the Drupal admin?
Never had anything like this happen to me so unsure of where
to look...
#10
Yeah, it shows up everywhere except Site Configuration. I had this happen before with another module but I never got any support on that one.
#11
When you go to:
admin/by-module
Is there a section for Account Reminder? What do you see? Can
you send a screenshot?
#12
All that's showing up is permissions. Here's a screenshot.
#13
that is quite odd. the only thing I can suggest at this point
is to try and flush the menu cache. You can do that via
the devel module. If that doesn't work, I would disable and
then uninstall the module and start over from scratch.
#14
What is the bug in the permissions in 1.0-beta2? I am unable to access admin/settings/account_reminder with any user other than the Drupal admin user.
#15
So, for a little clarification here:
@amnion - Does the option to administer the module show up for you when logged in as user 1?
@jaydub - I've tried both Beta 2 and Dev. As user 1, I can see and configure the module. With a user who belongs to a role with administer account reminder set, I am unable to see account reminder. I have gone and enable administration for another module that also appears in Site configuration, at which point I see that (other) module only. If I try to go directly to admin/settings/account_reminder, I get an Access denied error.
I tested using D5.7. It is not a fresh install, but is on a site I am currently building. I did not have time to set up a completely fresh 5.7 install right now and only add this module.

"As user 1, I can see and configure the module. With a user who belongs to a role with administer account reminder set, I am unable to see account reminder...If I try to go directly to admin/settings/account_reminder, I get an Access denied error."
This is true for me also.
#17
This is a bug in the Beta2 but is not a problem if you were using the
-dev snapshot dated after the Beta2. I've verified working status on
a fresh virgin install of Drupal 5.7.
I've rolled out a 5.x-1.0 release which has all the updated code so
with this you all should have no problems accessing the configuration
page.
Please try and reply to this issue if you have trouble
#18
@jaydub: With the 5.x-1.0 release, this does appear to be working properly now. Thank you.
