Low Reorder broken for non-"Super Admin" members

sccottt 11 Nov 2012 22:15 problem, complete

The Low Reorder module page shows a blank white page for members who are not Super Admins.

I've created a "Content Editor" member group, which pretty much has the same privileges as a Super Admin. When I login as a Content Editor, the Low Variables page comes up as a completely blank page. I don't notice any other problems with this member group (can access all other module pages, edit content, etc).

Any ideas on what's going on?

   Scott, have you set the permissions for that member group?

   Yeah, I've tried setting the permissions to each of the three settings for both of my sets, and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

   Hi Scott,
   
   Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing as a non-superAdmin? Thanks.

   Pulls up a totally blank page.

   What are your versions for Low Reorder, ExpressionEngine and PHP?
   
   White screen usually implies an error that is suppressed by PHP, so could you try and enable debugging, either by looking at the PHP error log, or setting $debug = 1; in your /system/index.php file. Then see if you can see an error being generated.

   I'm using
   - Low Reorder 2.1.0
   - ExpressionEngine 2.5.2
   - PHP Version 5.2.17
   
   When I turned on debug, I get the following error when trying to access the Low Reorder page as a non-Super Admin:
   
   

    
    Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in /(...)/admin/expressionengine/third_party/low_reorder/models/low_reorder_set_model.php on line 170 
    

   
   
   Thanks!

   Bug found.
   
   Open up mcp.low_reorder.php and go to line #88. Then change this:
   
   

   json_decode($set['permissions'])

   
   
   to this:
   
   

   json_decode($set['permissions'], TRUE)

   
   
   ...which should solve the issue. The fix will be added to the next version.

   Success! Thank you for the great support! Much appreciated.

   Hi James,
   
   Can you see an error message, either in the PHP error logs or by setting the $debug var to 1, as mentions here? Also, what's your PHP version?

   I had edited the wrong file -- sorry for the trouble!
