Quick question re: Contact Dashboard: Assigned Activities.
April 05, 2013, 06:31:40 am

Hey,

Having some trouble with the Contact Dashboard. I am new here so it is probably an easy question for most of you.
I am unable to view Contact Dashboard > Assigned Activities.

The activity is there on the dashboard but when I click it I get a permission error (ie. you do not have permission to view this page). I am logged in as super user. I ensured "Access Contact Dashboard" is allowed.

Any tips? Eventually I would want Registered users to access the dashboard (and their Assigned Activities).


Joomla 2.5.9
CiviCRM 4.2.8

Thanks!

Hershel

Check to see if you are switching between www.mysite.com and mysite.com as that can cause this.

Hey Hershel,

Thanks for the input. It is working now. :) Is there are way to ensure it stays as one format or the other? (ie. www.mysite.com vrs mysite.com)?

Thanks again.

You must use the one that's set in your civicrm.settings.php file

Ok, thank you. I will check what it is set to in the morning. Would like affect other CiviCRM / Joomla displays (like having a contribution page display correctly, etc)?

If so, this might fix a couple different problems.

Usually it doesn't affect those.

Hey Caiken2, are you able to go back to "Contact Dashboard" after you move away from it? I am unable to visit the dashboard directly from CiviCRM. The only way I can access my dashboard is through my website from "View Contact Dashboard".

Is there a way I can make my Contact Dashboard my homepage for CiviCRM (so that whenever I click "Home", I can visit my dashboard)?

Sorry if it is a bit confusing, but I have attached an image to make it simple :)

The image with the green tick is what I want as my homepage, while the one with the red cross is what I don't want.

Is there an easy way I can visit the green-tick dashboard directly within CiviCRM?
