Forums / Setup & design / What am I missing? Editors can't create articles..

I've studied the permissions-system, but still I can't get users assigned to the role "Editors" to create articles. Instead I get the error "No access - You've got no access to this area" (translated from my Norwegian installation).
I guess I'm missing some module in the access-list. My original administrator user works fine (not other admin-user though)..
Any hints on this?

Sometimes its worth tackling the problem from the opposite end. Try changing your permissions to:
'content * *'
If that works, start removing permissions until you find the problem.

Yup, that's what I'm doing but it's kind of timeconsuming.
It would be nice with documentation stating which basic permissions are required in roles for assigned users to be able to do actions as "create articles", "create articles for approval" and so on..

Yip, the errors could also be more informative :)

In my testing I've now given my "super editors" ALL permissions. Now users assigned to this group can create and edit articles, but when I send for publishing the article disappears.. Weird!
My settings: _____________________________________Role edit Super Editor (no approval needed)
Permissions: Module Fucntion Limitations * * * _____________________________________

Hello Valentin,
I think this is due to the workflow: publishing will perhaps only occur when the workflow cronjob is run again. Could you try this?
For most of the sites, I let the cron run every 5 minutes.
