Very Sorry me again - The plug in seemed to install but when I tried to link text in an article/item i got a "restricted acess" message. What have I done wrong?

Novice here AGAIN

Ok Nic, feel stupid - just figured it out - I was looking in the joomla content and not the K2 content tab. It is working. You said in a previous post that this jouney is exciting - can not wait for the "excitment" when the frustration passes!!

I'm glad you got it figured out! Frustration is part of the journey, but that's what makes it exciting. Soon enough everything falls into place and you get a very strong "aha" factor :)

Hi guys, just a quick post regarding those of you who might be playing around with the K2 v2.5 (SVN) version.The plugin did not work for me when I tried it (Yes, version is not for production but still I wanted to post this fix just to give a heads up before a future K2 release), Nicholas will most likly do a propper fix for this issue when K2 2.5 goes stable. I did a very quick and dirty edit to get the plugin to work with the version:

File: components/com_jce/editor/extensions/links/k2links/k2.php

row 78 - 86, Remove:
if(version_compare(JVERSION,'1.6.0','ge')) {
$user =&amp; JFactory::getUser();
$query .= ' AND access &lt;= '.(int) $user-&gt;get('aid');
}

$query .=
' AND parent = '.$db-&gt;Quote($parent_id)
. ' ORDER BY ordering ASC'
;

row 100 - 109, remove:
if(version_compare(JVERSION,'1.6.0','ge')) {
$user =&amp; JFactory::getUser();
$query .= ' AND access &lt;= '.(int) $user-&gt;get('aid');

}

$query .=
' AND catid = '.$db-&gt;Quote($category_id)
. ' ORDER BY ordering ASC'
;

Again, not pretty but it will make the "K2 Content" working atleast, :)

The correct solution is to replace:

$query .= ' AND access <= '.(int) $user->get('aid');

with

$query .= ' AND access IN ('.implode(',', $user->authorisedLevels()).')';

in the file you mentioned. The first line won't work on Joomla! 1.6/1.7 as there is no aid column any more. Instead, we have to fetch the list of the user's authorised view levels and make sure the category/article belongs to one of them. A fixed version will be posted shortly after I get back from vacation :)

I updated the plugin to work with Joomla! 1.7 and K2 2.5 (and, of course, Joomla! 1.5 and K2 2.1 or later!). The new download can be found at www.dionysopoulos.me/blog/k2-meets-jce-2_0

Worked perfectly on my JCE Admin 2.0.14 and K2 2.4.1 on my Joomla 1.5.23 website. Don't know why dionysopoulos says it won't work with J1.5 on his blog

Thank you for this plugin! Awesome work!

I say that it doesn't work with JCE 1.5, NOT Joomla! 1.5. JCE is the editor, Joomla! is the CMS. Don't confuse the two ;)

Apologies! I'm so used to seeing 1.5.x in that format after Joomla! that it instantly registers as Joomla!

Your extension is still kicking arse.
