HTML Editor 3 File Manager authentication

I have a user log in page set which authenticates using Access Rules and Access Page code. Included in the Access Page set is a page containing an HTML Editor instance. All works well up to the point of clicking Browse Server on the Image Properties dialog. Instead of accessing the File Manager I'm redirected to the page I've chosen to use if authentication fails.

The rules-pass code automatically inserted is:
if (!WA_Auth_RulePasses("Ministry Access")){
WA_Auth_RestrictAccess("pgUsers_LogIn.php?pagemsg=Access Denied.");
}

The HelperGroupRulesPHP.php file code section relating to above is:
case "Ministry Access":
$comparisons[0] = array(TRUE, "".((isset($_SESSION['level']))?$_SESSION['level']:"") ."", 1, "ministry");
$comparisons[1] = array(TRUE, "".((isset($_SESSION['level']))?$_SESSION['level']:"") ."", 1, "admin");
break;

I've tested that the session does pass to the page containing the HTML Editor instance but there is where it seems to end. No $_SESSION['level'] can be found (by me anyway) after that resulting in a redirect which bypasses the File Manager.

Any ideas?

work with .htaccess instead

If you use the webassist folder as "admin" folder you can put the whole stuff behind a .htaccess login. All admin pages are safe at once because the server's authentication models does not protect single files but a whole subdirectory. All you have to do, is to put the userfiles directory outside this directory so that it is public accessible.

Did a fix get found for this as i too have just upgraded to v3.1 and are experiencing the same issue. Just checked the authentication and it is all correct but as soon as i try the file mananger I'm also being redirecting to the login page.

Cheers

For the original poster, it was an issue with the date format on the server.


in the /webassist/kfm/initialize.php file.

try changeing:

php:
$kfm->defaultSetting('time_format', '%T');

$kfm->defaultSetting('date_format', '%x');


To:

php:
$kfm->defaultSetting('time_format', '%H:%M:%S');

$kfm->defaultSetting('date_format', '%m/%d/%y');

Thanks but it's still re-directs to the login page after changes to two lines? Any more ideas?
