    Hi, Maverick, it was there all along. What else could be the reason? Thanks!

    Hi, Maverick,Understand from the change log that there is now an option to show/hide the toolbar but I can't find that anywhere.  Could you please confirm?You and I have been trading emails about how the options in the toolbar would help with ACL.  Could you clarify how you intend for the show/hide toolbar feature to function?Thanks!

    Hi, Maverick,I just tried to update the site using Extensions: Update but got the following error message, which is the same as the one I mentioned in my previous post.  Could you please take a look?For now, I'd revert to uploading the whole package as before.Thanks!

    Hi, Maverick, please see my comments below.  Thanks again!1a: Are you referring to an override for all line items at the category level so that it wouldn't be necessary to enter line item overrides?  I suppose that isn't what you meant as it would make little sense unless one intends to whitelist or blacklist all line items.  If you are referring to override one can make at the category level for each line item, then you may not have understood my question which is focused on the first line of the list that is called "Access Component".1b: My comment was about "Edit", not merely reading or accessing a survey, where the Creator has no permission for "Edit" or "Edit Own".2a: I see.  Do you mean that surveys that are past the Finish Date should only be accessible only under "Account/My Surveys" and "Account/My Responses"?  What if I want to make these survey reports accessible to other users (within a certain User Group) who did not respond?  This may impact the search result being discussed under a different thread as well.(2b: Placeholder for your pending response only)

    Hi, Maverick,I understand that and this is what I would expect but is not what is happening.  Here is what I have -* All surveys have been indexed and are listed under Indexed Content;* Surveys are public and have names starting with "Test Survey";* 3 separate searches were activiated using "Test", "Survey", and "Test Survey" respectively; and* No item was found from any of these searches.Should there be a box for Surveys under "Search Only"?  There is none even though there are boxes for other extensions I have.Would it help if you take a look at my site?  Let me know and I will reactivate your login credentials.Thanks again!

    1a: I understand the distinction between global vs category level override.  It is still not clear to me what the Component Permssion at the category level does.  Could you cite an example?1b: I think you misunderstood my question.  You may like to re-read my explanation.  What I meant was that there shouldn't be an option under "My Surveys" to "Edit" the surveys if Permission for "Edit" and "Edit Own" is not set to "Allowed".  At this time, there is always a link for "Edit" even though CS would show an message that "Editing is not allowed" if the user without rights to "Edit" or "Edit Own" clicks on "Edit".  This is workable but CS should ideally not show the "Edit" link if the user has no editing rights.2a: I think you have also misunderstood my comments about this.  You answered part of my question, which is about making sure surveys are not editable after the Finish Date, but oversaw my comment about ensuring surveys reports will remain accessible to users even after the Finish Date.  As it stands, surveys would drop off the list and not be accessible to regular users after the Finish Date - this is not helpful as surveys reports are generally used for references past the closing date in a real world setting. Could you confirm how this could be accomplished?2b: Will wait to hear from you.  Thanks!

    Hi, Maverick,Unfortunately, I didn't make a note of the exact message.  It was to the tune of the update not being successful because something was missing.Thanks!

    Hi, Maverick,It's good to see that v.4 has a Finder plugin for Smart Search now!  It would appear, however, that CS contents are not being included in the search result even though -1) Smart Search - Surveys has already been enabled; and2) Contents from CS are listed under Components/Smart Search/Indexed Content.Could you please take a second look and let me know what the problem may be?Thanks again!

    Hi, Maverick,Thank you in advance for your professional support, as usual!I have a couple observations about the operations within CS and their related impact and hope that you are able to clarify the correct application -1) Category Permissions:(a) "Access Component": This seems to be a new option under Category Permissions.  Could you clarify what the function is and how it works?(b) Account/My Surveys: My understanding is that this lists all the surveys the user has created.  A link for "Edit" seems to be displayed regardless of whether the user is given permission to "Edit" or "Edit Own" even though CS does render a message along the line of "Edit not permitted" if the user does not have the proper level of permission.  Is this an intended behavior?  It may be best if the option for "Edit" is only shown if the user has the proper authorization but understand if there are system limitations at this time.(c) Advanced Search: It appears that all categories are listed for search option regardless of whether the user has been given permission for those categories.  My understanding is that search results would only show the categories users have permission for but this would not be ideal as some of these categories may either be private or confidential.2) Archived Surveys:(a) Accessibility: It appears that surveys past the Finished Dates are no longer accessible to users with the proper access rights.  I would like the reports to be accessible for reference until I decide to retire the sometime in the future.  Could you confirm how this could be accomplished?(b) Survey Counts: As it stands now, surveys that are past the Finish Dates are still being counted as shown below even though they are no longer accessible.  This could potential cause a lot of confusion to end users.  Could you kindly take a second look?Best regards.

    Hi, Maverick,I also have the same question about updating.  It would appear from the prompt in Joomla that we would only need to click the Update button but that only generates an error message.  I eventually updated the extension by uploading the package for 4.0.1 over the previous version.Thanks!

    OK, Maverick, I think I found out why there is a 404 error.  Since you have now added new options for the menu, I will have to select from one of the options for correct content to be displayed.I think Survey List View is the one that resembles the old layout the most.  The problem, however, is that the button for "Create a Survey" is no longer available.  You may recall from our previous correspondence that you have helped modify the back-end and ACL to make this work on my site.  Could you please guide me on how the functionality can be restored so that I can make a note of that for future reference?Thanks again!

    Hi, Maverick,I just updated CjLib to 2.3.5 and my site from v3.x to v4.  I then activated the Migration tool as instructed and got the message that survey migration was successful.  Tag migration, however, shows "Invalid option".All the existing surveys are shown on the back-end but, when I click on Edit, there are multiple lines Warning that say "Can't load editor".On the front-end, I am now getting 404 error.Could you please help resolve this urgently?Thanks!
