Phoca Forum

Hi
I have a problem with smart search. I don't know if this is due to a problem with Joomla smart search or Phoca Download?
All categories and files in Phoca Download have access set to registered.
I log in to the website and have created a menu item with smart search. It finds the files, but when I try to select a file to download it I get this message: You have no rights to this category.
Can anyone give me some tips on how to solve this? There must be something I forgot to set the correct parameters for, but I can't figure out what?

Hi,

it depends on settings - the files can be searched on web but to access them, the login needs to be done.

Yes. When I log in on front end I can search for files, get result with many files. But when I select a file, I get a message that I don't have access to this category. I have set all categories and files to "registered" and I log in with a user who has access level "registered"

Hi, which version of Phoca Download do you run? Testing now latest 5 or 4 and everything is OK

Hi,
was there a solution for that problem?
we've the same problem. All phoca download files and categories are for registered users only.
I made a filter in smart search for phoca download items only and a smart search menu entry for registered users.
The phoca download files are founded but when clicking on an item I'm getting "You have no rights to access this category".
The user have definitely the rights for that category and file.
When selecting the file via "normal" phoca download menu it's no problem. Only when coming from the search result page.
It is as if the link would like to call the pdf directly which is (correctly) restricted by phoca download without checking the user rights.
Did we configure something wron in the smart search plugin for phoca download?
We've Joomla 6.1.1, Phoca Download 6.1.0 and Phoca Finder Plugon 6.1.1
