Re:remository's groups disappeared after the upgra - 2008/11/02 18:51
The following is from the read_me.txt file that is included in the Remository download package. Unfortunately, the introduction of a much more powerful access control system made it impossible to achieve an automatic upgrade.
3.43 for Joomla 1.5, Joomla 1.0.x and Mambo
March 2008
Martin Brampton
Major change - complete replacement of access control code with role based system. PLEASE NOTE - all old custom access control information will be lost!!
Also contains several important fixes to bugs found in collaboration with users.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION WITHOUT BACKING UP YOUR DATABASE!! Please see the FAQ at http://www.remository.com for more information on upgrading.
The installation of Remository 3.43 will do a basic conversion of access controls, but will NOT transfer any details of custom groups, or any edit group information, it will ONLY set containers to be available to visitors or to all registered users for upload and download, in accordance with how the containers were previously set BUT IGNORING ANY SPECIFIED CUSTOM GROUPS (which cannot be transferred to the new Remository access system).
You will need to manually review your access controls before continuing and may want to take your site offline while this is completed.
