required permissions
-
the message “The course index is empty or you do not have the required permissions to access this page” when User register and log in to the site.
Only administrators (only me) can see the course.
why?

Hello sevenseconds777,
thanks for getting in touch!
Have you checked the user/groups permissions? In the menu to the right under cluevo there should be a link to the permssions page. From there you can set the user and group permissions and assign users to groups. Your registered users should automatically be in the “users” groups, if you set the permissions accordingly they should be able to see your content.Greetings from Austria,

I can’t create a group.
No matter how many times I do it, it will be group zero.hmm, that doesn’t seem right… Is there any chance I we can take a look directly?
Do you have the default groups (guest, user, premium)? What happens if you assign permissions to say the guest group? Can you access your courses then?
Another question: Do you access the courses through the shortcode or directly through the lms index page?Greetings from Austria,

I am having the exact problems as sevenseconds777.
Can’t create groups no matter how many times i click on add group and fill out the add groups form.
Also when i set the permissions and try to access it as a user with unlocked permission i get the same error message:
“The course index is empty or you do not have the required permissions to access this page”On the backend user management all i see are permissions user group. Any use I approve shows. But no group shows. I dont see any guest, premium etc.
Closing this because of inactivity, feel free to open another issue.
@cluevo I have archived your reply.
While I know you have the best of intentions, it’s forum policy that you not ask users for admin or server access. Users on the forums aren’t your customers, they’re your open source collaborators, and requesting that kind of access can put you and them at high risk.
If they are paying customers (such as people who bought a premium service/product from you) then by all means, direct them to your official customer support system. But in all other cases, you need to help them here on the forums.
Thankfully are other ways to get information you need:
- Ask the user to install the Health Check plugin and get the data that way.
- Ask for a link to the http://pastebin.com/ or https://gist.github.com log of the user’s web server error log.
- Ask the user to create and post a link to their
phpinfo();output. - Walk the user through enabling WP_DEBUG and how to log that output to a file and how to share that file.
- Walk the user through basic troubleshooting steps such and disabling all other plugins, clear their cache and cookies and try again (the Health Check plugin can do this without impacting any site vistors).
- Ask the user for the step-by-step directions on how they can reproduce the problem.
You get the idea.
We know volunteer support is not easy, and this guideline can feel needlessly restrictive. It’s actually there to protect you as much as end users. Should their site be hacked or have any issues after you accessed it, you could be held legally liable for damages. In addition, it’s difficult for end users to know the difference between helpful developers and people with malicious intentions. Because of that, we rely on plugin developers and long-standing volunteers (like you) to help us and uphold this particular guideline.
When you help users here and in public, you also help the next person with the same problem. They’ll be able to read the debugging and solution and educate themselves. That’s how we get the next generation of developers.
