JUGA FAQs

Can JUGA hide Admin-Side Menu Items?

YES, JUGA can hide menu items on the Admin-Side. This requires the use of the mod_menujuga and mod_quickiconsjuga (if you also want to restrict the admin desktop icons) ADMIN-SIDE modules (which also require the JUGA Check Rights plugin to be installed).  You can also hide the complete menu from displaying, see information here http://www.dioscouri.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=2&func=view&id=3942&catid=3

Joomla 1.0

In Joomla! 1.0.x, while using the JUGA-Enabled Admin-Side Template, YES, JUGA will hide menu items to which the logged-in user does not have access.

 

Can JUGA Restrict Users to VIEWING one Section/Category?

Yes, JUGA can restrict users to VIEWING a single section/category.
 

Can JUGA Restrict user creating content into One Section/Category?

YES, but only with the use of our free CONTENT SUBMIT component.

Joomla 1.0

In Joomla 1.0.x: YES. Please see our HowTo on "Restricting Front-End Content Creation"

 

Are JUGA Groups Recognized by aMember?

No, unfortunately JUGA and aMember do not play well together.
 

Will JUGA work with Community Builder?

Yes, JUGA works just fine on a site with Community Builder installed.
   

Does JUGA work with com_wrapper?

YES, but with this method only: http://www.dioscouri.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=4&id=2224 (special thanks to Renato for implementing this fix to com_wrapper, something we at Dioscouri believe should be part of the core)

The reason this fix is necessary is that other than the `Itemid` value, com_wrapper URLs are all identical. JUGA doesn't distinguish between Site Items based on their `Itemid`, so if the only variance between two menu item links is their Itemid, then JUGA will treat them as the same link.

In other words, you won't be able to get JUGA to distinguish between com_wrapper items, and therefore won't be able to assign them to different groups (unless you're using J! 1.5 and implement Renato's fix).

Joomla 1.0

No. JUGA will not restrict com_wrapper items in Joomla 1.0

   

What is the "n/a" under Include?

Many of you have asked why there is an "n/a" under the "Include" column in JUGA>>Site Items.  Here's the answer!
  • The content articles are "n/a" in the include column because they are part of the "Content Component". The *com_content component* CAN be excluded/included from JUGA's restrictions, but for individual content items, you must assign them to a JUGA group.
 

Can I restrict an Admin to only one component?

Yes, yes you can.  The method for doing this is the exact same as doing it for your front-end components. You will need to
  1. create the appropriate JUGA Groups for your Admins,
  2. configure your Admin-Side Site Items so they are assigned to the appropriate JUGA Groups and
  3. assign users to the relevant JUGA Groups.
Please see our Manual, HowTo, and Troubleshooting pages for JUGA (in the JUGA section of the "Our Extensions" menu). They address many of the issues new users may have with configuring JUGA.

No you do not.  None of our components are encrypted.  You are free to customize them to fit your needs perfectly.
 

Can I Use It on More than One Site?

Yes, your license allows you to use it on more than one domain.
 

Do you have a demo?

Yes.  For URLs and login IDs/PWs, please see here.
