Hi Team,

I suggest to add "Inherit" to Komento's ACL in future (Feature Request). This is especially good for user's with multiple groups as not all group are for the purposes of controlling rights for the users (maybe membership, category access, etc) since EasyBlog's (and Komento) apply the "most restrictive rules" for ACL, then "Inherit" (or neutral) is required for the setting.

p.s. I will post the same feature request for EasyBlog.
Thanks for the heads up on this Alfred.

I support this feature request. I like Komento but its ACL is not ideal on a site where users can belong to more than one group. Komento applies the most restrictive rule instead of allowing the user the permissions of his highest group, as in the Joomla! 3 ACL. Please do something about this.

Hello Robert,

Thanks for writing in. Currently, our developers are focusing on EB5 and ES. We will see what we can do.

Hi,

Is it still the case that Komento does not fully support Joomla's ACL? I cannot get permissions to be applied correctly on my website. e.g.:

I have a user who is a member of multiple groups. If I add him to a 'Super User' group (in Users), and have the Komento ACL setting for the Super User group to "Enable All", the user still cannot edit comments.

Other users cannot 'like' comments, or reply to comments, even though their user profiles and Komento groups appear to be set up correctly.

Am I missing something, or does Komento's ACL only work if users are members of one group suggested by Robert Young above?

Many thanks!

Hey Gary,

Currently the ACL still respects "deny" rule but in the next version of Komento, the "allow" rule will have higher precedence. In other words, regardless if which group the user is assigned to, as long as there is an "allow" rule, they will be allowed.

Many thanks for your speedy response! And it's encouraging to know that I won't have to move everything to a different system. Looking forward to the new version! Thanks again.
