Hello,

 I am using DNN 6.1.4 and have a serious concern about the core Form and List module version 5.1.3.

I have a list to which I need to give registered users the ability to add a new record. I have granted registered users the permission to Create Record / Submit Form, as well as Edit and Delete records, and also set the module so that users can only manipulate their own items. When logged in as a regualr, non-admin user, there is no way to add a new record to the list. This is not the case in DNN 5x. Can anyone confirm this behavior?

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Ken,

 The page level permission gives registered users view access. The module permissions are currently set to give everything to registered users with the exception of module edit. I agree with you that giving registered users this permission is very dangerous and I wouldn't do it. The module list appearance setting is set to "List" (as opposed to "Form" or any other combination). The issue is that in DNN 6 the "Add New Record" link is only shown in the Manage popup, and you only get that if you have Edit permission on the module. This seems to be an oversight / bug. I can work around this by putting the module into "Form Above / Below List" mode, but this is not optimal and should be fixed.

 Thanks,

 Bill

Hi Ken,

I already entered an issue on CodePlex and Stephan Cullman replied saying that the DNN 6 skin Dark Knight does not implement the dnn:ACTIONS skin object and that is why the Add New Record link is not showing. The skin that I am using was created with Artisteer 3, which also doesn't use that skin object. When I manually add the skin object to the skin it's behaving as expected. So it's a little unclear where the bug lives - in the module, or in the core. It seems to me that the Manage popup should show the Add link if the module developer uses the correct methods, but from my vantage point it's difficult to tell.
