Bug limiting visibility of group Members to admins only has been resolved

Imported from previous forum

The outstanding priority 1 bug relating to group members not being able to see the identity of other Group members has now been resolved, however the fix has re-exposed an earlier issue relating to the ordering of members alphabetically which is now being prioritized.

The sort-order script was causing an error relating to the display of the membership, and has been resolved by elimination of the offending element of sort-order script, on the basis that this was a "lesser evil". 

Members can now see one another, and have the ability to exercise their member moderation roles from the drop down menu on each member icon, depending on the current group roles assigned to them.

Note that the ability to assign Adminstrator roles is reserved for the owner entity profile itself (e.g. for a company, the owner role will be help by the corporate profile itself, not the individual assigned as the admin. The credentials for the entity role were sent to individuals in accordance with instructions from FPL, but may not have been sent to the person who regards themsleves as the "main" Company Admin. 

"Admins" from the old site may only have "moderator" status on the new site, as the roles did not equate, and the identity of the "main" admin was ambiguous from the migration data, so to avoid assigning individuals innapropriate roles, all admins have been defined as moderators, and the core "golden key" reserved for the entity profile itself, so that the Admin role can be assigned from source.

To change this, login using the "Owner" credentials, and assign Administrator status to the appropriate individuals, who then have all the capabilities of the Owner, EXCEPT the ability to define other Admins, transfer ownership of the group, or create content types (such as Employee Groups, Member Listings or Product & Services Listings that are reserved for entity profiles with appropriate FPL member status.

For groups owned by member entities, if you were not in reciept of entity credentials, and are validated by the Programme Office as being entitled to recieve them, they can be re-issued on request. The Programme Office can also, on request, assign designated Moderators the full-blown Administrator role, which allows them to designate other Moderators.

There are help resources available to introduce Group Admins to how to perform their role

 

 

I have made John Cameron, John Greenan, Scott Atwell and Hanno Klein full-blown adminstrators for all Employee Groups, Member Listings and (where relevant) Products & Services Listings for their respective companies, on the basis they all encountered this issue and are quite clearly the relevant people.

Where the Member Listing has not inherited the same "baseline" composition as the Employee Group this will be resolved shortly via a script. This could not be rectified prior tothe visibility of the members without risking complicating matters, but is now a priority. You should now be able to embellish the respective groups to your own preference. I would suggest taking a look at the relevant "help" videos first at http://www.fixtradingcommunity.org/pg/help-section in the "Help for Companies" section.

Happy to provide any guidance rqeuested now you can access the basic entry point!
