Problem/Motivation

I cannot seem to hide the link "Workflow summary" from anyone but user. In permissions I have "access workflow summary views" only ticked for admin yet when not logged in, this menu item appears.

Proposed resolution

The Summary View is a Views display. Settings must be checked there.

I cannot duplicate this with 6.x-1.0-rc4.

I have the same problem. The workflow summary shows up in the links under the Navigator menu for authenticated users even though the only permissions granted are for administrator.

I have installed the 6.x-1.1 version, but users without the access workflow summary views permission cannot see the workflow summary link.

I am having the same problem.

Under the Permissions section, I have "access workflow summary views" unchecked for "authenticated user", but the "Workflow summary" menu item still shows up in the Navigation menu when an "authenticated user" is logged in.

Workflow 6.x-1.1
Drupal 6.9

I have this problem too...though I don't think I saw this until after I installed the Premium module...but not sure

same problem and i found a solution :
node author is anonymous, so anonymous can see workflow states
i changed the author of the node to admin
now it's ok, no more workflow summary views for anonymous users

Using Drupal 6.17 and Workflow 6.x-1.4, I'm seeing the same problem, even when no one is logged in -- in which case "Workflow summary" is the only navigation menu item displayed. In admin/user/permissions, in the "workflow module" section, I disabled the "access workflow summary views" permission for all roles, even admin. Yet the link is still displayed to all the visitors to the site. It's as though the code is ignoring those permissions settings.

The "Workflow summary" link has no specific HTML id, so it cannot be easily hidden using CSS. But one shouldn't have to resort to that.

tilu's solution didn't work for me. All of the nodes are authored by admin.

Anyone have a solution?

Subscribe. Same problem as mjross describes.

The same problem.
I've change the "navigation" block's configuration:
In "Show block for specific roles", check "authenticated user". Now the anonymous users can't see the block, neither the workflow links.
Worked for me.

Setting to active, there's a lot of tickets on the list but I'll take a look as I work through these.

same problem here, workflow summary is visible to anonymous users, even when permissions were disabled for them. I'm using Drupal 6 and workflow 1.5

This issue is still persisting on D6, workflow 1.5, even after:

  • Changing view permissions to role - admin
  • Changing Menu access per role to admin, denying anonymous
  • Disabling the menu item
  • Rebuilding permissions
  • Denied access to Anonymous using Path Access

Would appreciate some assistance on this.

Thanks.

We really don't have anyone working on the 6.x branch.

You might want to make sure the 'access all views' permission is NOT selected, as it rarely should be.

The 'workflow summary' is a Views display with a specific permission. You can either set the permission correctly, or override the permissions in the view.

Moving all remaining D6 issues to D7.
I'd rather keep all Q&A issues open, but there is no proper status for that.
