Does anyone have any input on this? I am having the exact same issue with 3.5.0.
I have some of the sub-folders of the main folder assigned to a "members only" section to prevent anonymous users from accessing them. That part works fine.
However, when I log in as a user, I can not see the "members only" sub-folders until I go into one of the other sub-folders, at which point I can now see all of the folders I should be seeing. As soon as I go back up to the top-level folder, the protected folders dissapear again.
That's probably a cache problem. Try surrounding it with a cache block whose key includes the role or something like that, so that there are two different versions based on the role id.
Gabriel, thanks for the quick response. I had also suspected a problem with the cache, but am not familiar with the cache manipulation directives.
I am searching through the documentation and forums for more information regarding how to do what you suggested. Any pointers/info you might have to offer would be greatly appreciated.
OK, I found the info that I needed to implement Gabriel's suggestion.
For anyone that is interested:
1. Create an override for pagelayout.tpl and copy the original contents to the override.
2. Find the cache blocks for all of the menus
3. To each cache block change the keys to the following: keys=array('my_cache_block',$uri_string,$current_user.role_id_list|implode(',')) expiry=86400
There may be a better way to do this, but I needed a quick fix and this worked. Any suggestions on improvements would be appreciated.
