When one of our users is creating views with Advanced Find, the views appear in his My Views until he refreshes the page, and disappear after it. I reproduced it on few computers with different browsers and for different entities in CRM. It is working as expected for other users. I already tried to remove and add CRM licenses for this user.
Any ideas?
Finally I created support request for Microsoft. They ran some script on their side and solved the problem.
We experienced this today, shared personal views & dashboards not shown for a particular user.
Removing roles or unsharing/resharing didn’t solve the issue. In all cases, POA table was showing perfect access levels (used xrmtoolbox - search POA plugin). But Access checker xrmtoolbox plugin reveals no access for those saved views (userquery) & user dashboard (userform).
The issue is solved after removing/assigning license in O365.
Another observation: User’s last name changed & asked for AD account modification, our help desk created dupe profile & merged. This could have messed the systemuser entry.

I want to implement leave management system in joomla. For every leave i want email notification to be sent to employee's manager (reporting manager). I need to do employee - > reporting manager mapping somewhere in database.
Is there any built in utility in joomla user groups which can help me? OR Do I need to simply create mapping table in database?
Please suggest.
We are looking for something very similar to run within a Joomla Intranet environment.
I have recently found an extension that might be the kind of thing you are looking for - have a look at Intranet Attendance Track by thagatpam in the extensions directory.
The extension can track attendance, leave, and has a manager approval system built-in.
Hope this helps.
I have created a site where registered users can publish articles.
Is there a way to make the articles they publish be enabled automatically without me, as administrator, have to check if there are new articles submitted.
EDIT 1: Found a solution by setting the mysql default value of state to 1 from 0. But, is this a good way?
The ability to publish is controlled by the edit.state permission. You would want to give edit.state allow for registered for either all of content or just for specific categories they are allowed to publish in.
My client has Joomla! ver 1.5.14 installed on the remote server. I logged in using the url /administrator/ with login 'admin'. When landed on the admin page after successful login, I observed that the top menu has only two elements, Site and Help. All other elements like Menus, Content, Components, Extensions etc are not there.
Also I do not find any way to access those elements (menus, components). There are not icons on the screen to access them.
Could someone please help me figure out this issue?
Thanks in advance

MulC
EDIT:
Following is the screenshot of the admin page

Thank you
It's very strange that this should happen unless your client has been fiddling with the core Joomla files or database tables.
Update the site to the latest version of the 1.5 series (1.5.26)
Download the full Joomla package, extract the administrator, components, includes, libraries, modules and plugins folder, zip them up and upload to the server, replacing the current folder. Not to worry, this will only override the core files which I assume haven't been edited.
Try downloading and installing another admin template.
Else the only other thing I can think of is reconstructing the website which might take a while, depending on the amount of work that went into it.
In Joomla! 1.5.x a common security step was to create an alternate "super user" and downgrade the default admin account to a standard registered. Due to issues in early versions of 1.5 though it wasn't recommended to delete or disable this account.
This sounds like what is going on with your admin account.
You can check this by looking at the database checking the table jos_users look for the username admin and see what it's usertype is set to. At the same time look for a user that has an usertype of Super Administrator (yes, really the words Super Administrator).
Once you have the username of the Super Administrator, you will need to find the password. If the client doesn't know it then you will have to recover the admin password.
When I have logged in the backend administration section of joomla its showing as such why is it so??
I am totally confused seeing this...
Is this any error
or Any plugin issue...
The site has been Upgraded from 1.7 to 2.5 a month ago..
But then also any hint of such a problem was not seen....
A friend of mine had this issue and I helped him narrow it down.
This problem is caused by fiddling with _viewlevels table in your joomla database. Some plugins/extensions could possibly make such changes as well.
In Joomla Content is classified by who can view/access it. There are three levels of Content Access Classification:
Public - open to all visitors to the web site.
Registered - restricted to all seven Registered User Groups of the web site.
Special - restricted to all User Groups except Guest and Registered.
Administrator belongs to Special. Giving Special all permissions solves thee problem. For some reason, Special class no longer had the ability to access menus of administrator panel in your application.
Edit the Special entry in viewlevels table so it looks like this:
id title ordering rules
|-------------|----------------|-------------|----------------|
| 3 | Special | 2 |[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]|
|-------------|----------------|-------------|----------------|

I installed Joomla 1.7 and I noticed that you can have user profiles with the user profile plugin. However, is there a way to publicly access a user's profile (without loging in)?
For instance, I noticed that you can go to:
/index.php?option=com_users&view=profile
However, that seems to pull up my own profile, If I am logged out it always redirects you to the login form. I have tried adding additional variables like "id=1", "user_id=1", or "userId=1".
Is there a way to do this? Or will I have to develop a component to pull in this information publicly?
Even though it not possible with clean Joomla website a lot of useful code come with it, which you could include to your component if you prefer to create one.
But... there is a great extension Community Builder with a great team behind it. Having used it in the past, I would highly recommend it as a solution for community based sites.
It changes the login form to a much better & bug-free form, enables more fields to be created for registration, and allows special pages for individual users, plus, community builder has extension-specific plugins.
EDIT: This answer needs an update as since it was added more extensions have been introduced like JomSocial or EasySocial. I cannot recomment CommunityBuilder any more
This post is tagged with Joomla 1.7 however I wanted to mention that if using Joomla 3.7.4 you now have the ability to show the User Profile plugin data from the core Contacts component. You can also add more custom fields to the Users component and they will also show from the Contacts component. You can set the display of the Users Profile info by going to the Admin panel -> Contacts -> Options. Turn on the option under; Contact -> User Profile -> set to "Show".
