Interface broken for non-managers?

Oliver Heine 16 May 2014 11:24 problem, active

For non-variable managers the interface is kinda broken. The groups-navigation on the left is missing and everything else is a bit off.



Using EE 2.8.1
and Low Variables 2.5.0

(Filename is "temp_file_low_variables_v2501" though).

   Looks like the CSS and/or JS isn't loaded properly. Check if the LV theme files are in the right place and try clearing your browser's cache.

   Thanks for replying. Mind you, for variable managers everything looks fine:

   Can't seem to reproduce. I'll need to take a look myself. Please send SuperAdmin login credentials to hi at gotolow dot com if you can.

   I think it happens if there is only one group to display for non-managers.
   
   Then in MCP line 292 kicks in:
   $this->data['show_groups'] = ! ( ! $this->is_manager() && count($this->data['groups']) <= 1);
   
   Then in the view mcp_index.php line 17 is false and you can watch the effect.

   Ah, OK. If you add this line below it, it will force the display of the menu. Does that help?
   
   

   $this->data['show_groups'] = TRUE;
