Content Curation

zigojacko

Since installing YAGA, all the posts I make on the forum have to be approved by an administrator (I am of the role 'Administrator' and 'Member'). I don't know if it is down to YAGA.

May I ask, what does the 'Content Curation' checkbox do under the 'Ranks'? Could this be the reason?

Further to this, it would appear that by 'granting' content curation, it prevents you from logging in with an error 'permission denied'.

AfaIk this application is not yet 2.2. 'ready'.

Thanks for clarifying, I did not realise (I have been finding workarounds or fixing anything that has broken so far).

How come Vanilla Forums are using YAGA on their own forum without issue then? Surely they are running v2.2 of their own software themselves?

YAGA is the open source alternative to the proprietary Vanilla reactions, put together by @hgtonight for the benefit of the community (though I'm sure he wouldn't turn down a donation...)

This warm the cockles of my heart, or at least makes me feel sly.

This gives users with that specific Rank the 'Garden.Curation.Manage' permission. It is used along with reactions to easily add content to the Best Of... page.

What issues have you found? I love finding problems in my code.
