I have set up Joomla user groups A, B, and C. Then I set up eDocman categories A, B, and C. Then I assigned Users 1, 2, 3 and 4 to these groups like this.
User 1 is assigned to group A and can access all permissions on Category A.
User 2 is assigned to group B and can access all permissions on Category B.
User 3 is assigned to group C and can access all permissions on Category C.
Everything works great except for user 4, who is assigned to Groups A and B. I would expect User 4 to be able to edit in both groups, but they can't. I had to instead make a group called "Group A & B" and then give viewing access to Group A and Group B. It still didn't work so then I also had to go into EDocman and set permissions on "Group A & B" for all of the Groups.
This works, but boy is it a lot of work because have 25 groups, 25 matching categories, 15 users who each need access to two of the groups, but not all groups. Is there a simpler way to do this? What am I missing? Or do I need to just bite the bullet and make 15 special groups for those 15 users?
I appreciate any and all insite. Thanks!
