Trying to get Awards Plugin to Work - Maybe Problem with Logger Plugin?
davematson
New
The Awards Plugin looks great, and I have tried to follow the readmes.
I have installed Aelia Foundation Classes and Logger as required.
But there seems to be a problem with Logger, when I hit Settings, I get the Permission Problems Error message. I didn't think there were any settings for that plugin, the readme suggests it should work out of the box.
I have them all enabled, but still get an error when I select the Awards Plugin Settings (Permission Problems).
the readme says that several directories must be writable. They are writable by Owner in FTP (755), is that sufficient?
anything else I might be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, and apologies if this topic has been covered. Search is down as the board is being fixed.

The best thing you can do is post under the plugin you are having issues with so it pings the author.

Do the error messages say which permissions in particular are causing the problem? Do those permissions exist in the roles and permission settings that you can give to the admin role?
The 755 directory permission level is sufficient if your web server is executing PHP as a group user. 777 is only needed if the web server requires full permissions to write and execute files.

I fixed Dave's issue. Seems that he had not set permissions for admin to access the settings for the plugin.

Thanks for taking care of it. I'm extremely busy these days, with the "addon" of a plethora of bad news to handle. Every time I want to reply to someone on the forum, something kicks in and I get sidetracked.
Good job!

Thanks so much @vrijvlinder for the personal help and @businessdad for the great plugin!
This is such a great community here. I hope to learn enough to contribute!
@davematson Also, while the search is down, use Google and search: "site:vanillaforums.org term". Common sense would tell you by the way to replace term with the search term.
