Users can't edit when Logged in

Permalink
I created a C5 site for my church and they love it, and I love it. They want to have multiple users with unique login info to edit the site. I can create users fine, but when they log into the site they are not redirected to the dashboard. They are sent to the homepage with no toolbar.

Is there a quick fix to this problem or is this quite strange. They are editing the site using the same 'admin' login info.

thanks

Hi Joe,
As far as I can tell, by the sounds of it you have not added them to the Group - Administrators.
Go to Users and Groups - Find Users - click on a members name - select edit user and then select add group in the bottom right. Add them to the Administrators Group.
Hope thats what you needed.
Cheers
Sean

You can assign the users that you want to edit the site to the administrators group, or you can set individual user rights by going to sitemap, clicking each page and doing edit permissions.

I logged in as the owner of page, but I did't see the usual controller at the top of the page, like when logged in as admin. I am using version 5.3.3.1. Does it matter if we add a page and assign it a Page Type as opposed to a Single Page? Does it need any special code at top of either kind for the controller to appear? I do have Loader::element('header_required') at the top of the included header element.

Follow-up ...

The only way it would display the edit controller is if I turn on their User Group as well via "Site Map -> Page -> Set Permissions -> Who can edit this page?" Why do I have to set the Group, too? If I have the owner set and that owner is logged in and visiting the page it should be enough for the controller to display for editing. I only want this owner to be able to edit their pages, not the whole group. I have yet to test if all persons in group could edit the page.
