In working on building up a Joomla 2.5 site, I had migrated over the registration database from my 1.5 site. In recent weeks I have run 20-30 test transactions through as I clean up issues. I have not really paid much attention to the records backend, as I have been focused on cleaning up front end issues.
Went to review records and clean out the test transactions, and I am unable to view them in the backend. I have gone through and checked permissions, sync'd groups, etc., to no avail. The only records I can view in the backend are from a single event that were migrated over (not entered as test transactions).
I know the new transactions are there, as I can see them through the CB online registration plugin in the front end.
1. Your user has "Edit Own Items Only" checked
or
2. Your user is a part of multiple Joomla User Groups (ie, Superadmin and Registered) and is therefore restricted by the lowest group.
You were absolutely correct.
I had "Edit Own Items Only" checked for superadmin. I unchecked this box and I can now see the full records table.
It seems that one is the only permission check box where checking restricts access - that threw me off. I usually check all the boxes for super admin to grant all access permissions... guess it helps to read the definitions more closely.
