Hi, for ‘Question Groups’
An event can have a ‘Add a pre-populated group of questions to your event. The personal information group is required for all events.’ This is straight forward, but when another user who is an admin either edits an event or creates an event the custom ‘Question Group’ is not showing as selectable.
I must be missing something, as i am expecting that any admin (ie someone with the same permissions) should be able to see, select and un select question groups per a given event.
It sounds like you have the Roles and Permissions add-on installed. One of the features of the R&P add-on is it gives each user’s account the ability to have their own set of question groups. You can share question groups between user accounts by deactivating the Roles and Permissions add-on.
Thanks for quick response. So, how would you make shared question groups work without turning off the roles and permissions add-on as that sort of defeats the point of having the add-on?
The Roles and Permissions add-on was built to not allow shared question groups. If you require shared question groups but need to customize user roles then I can advise trying out a plugin like Advanced Access manager.
Hi,
Makes sense. I don’t recall reading this information in your documentation as this would be very useful to know before creating question groups on events.
Suggest adding it if not there, or highlighting it if it is there as it is important to know this functionality.
Thanks for the feedback. There’s a highlighted note in the documentation about the how the question groups work when using Roles and Permissions in its documentation now.
