Site not showing sections/blocks/etc. in Vista

[sturmkatze]

Okay, I'll bite. What block is it? They're articles that aren't showing aren't in a block... I just have links in my menu to the articles and they show up. Most people seem to see them. And again, I never assigned the articles to a block... Maybe I'm missing something :-0

Well, I've NEVER seen anyone have this problem where it wasn't something they were missing. It is either article or block permissions. Its hard to follow you because at one point you're saying its articles, and the next you're saying its blocks.

Okay, to me this is a bit different. I used TP to replicate my old website because I wanted it to be a content management system... I tend to get things mixed up. What I do is basically make all my old pages into articles. It's clumsy and I hope I can get someone to make me a mod to do what I need. But, I digress...

I use the blocks to make the menus work; I have certain blocks containing menu articles that only show up w/ certain articles. BTW, I tried making it so they showed up in the category, but that didn't work.

Anyway, most people, I think, seem to see the articles, but some aren't. Here's one of their screen captures (I think she did it w/ a digicam):

And I should add what the page she captured SHOULD look like  (and DOES look like on my and most people's systems):

What groups is she a member of? What permissions for those groups do you have set on the articles and blocks that she is not seeing?

[tallfreek]

not sure if you've solved it or not. i'm in vista SP1, and i can see your whole front page?

[sturmkatze]

What groups is she a member of? What permissions for those groups do you have set on the articles and blocks that she is not seeing?

They're both global mods. I have the permissions set right, as far as I know. Other global mods see the pages... the thing I saw that linked them together was the Vista thing.

[sturmkatze]

So, nothin' so far? I have NO IDEA where to start. Only that these people COULD view the site and pages before I upgraded to 1.05 ... also, they both have vista. If two of my mods have this problem viewing articles, then how many other visitors are not seeing things?!

What should I do? I've looked at permissions until i am blue in the face and my back screams from sitting in this chair.

P.S. one of them told me she did a "go back" 5 weeks back and it's still not showing...

The only way I can trouble shoot this, is if you give me her login, and an admin login so that I can view both the account settings of the user login, and the permissions of  the articles/blocks etc. If you and the user are willing to give that to me, then I will take a look.

Looking at your settings you seem to have a lot of mixed stuff. For instance, you have the right panel set to "not" display while in the forum. Yet in "Your user Stuff" block, its set to show in the forum. How about you give me a list of what she is supposed to see on each page and I'll check what I see with her account, and then check the settings.
