1 Done, converted the panel at the top from a standard panels editable area to a 'custom content pane' so the edit hover link now says "Configure content pane" and WYSIWYG works.

Not 100% sure about 2 --- isn't 2a the same as 1?

1: great: for site editors or social reporters?

2: isn't this all for an admin/site editor *only* - ie NOT a social reporter? We need them to be able to edit these things without becoming admin/editor - solely remaining Social Reporters rights

OK so users with the 'social reporter blogger' can now:

Edit ALL panels -- danger! -- though they can't access all options.
Therefore edit the one at /stories, go to 'Contexts' (under Variants -> Home: Social Reporting) and change the 'Featured story' by clicking the cog and choosing a new node by typing the title and selecting from the list.
Edit any 'custom content pane' by hovering over it and choosing the faint 'Configure content pane', then can edit using the WYSIWYG editor as normal.

I have also converted the remaining panes to custom content panes, and tagged all these 'Social Reporters' -- visible here: https://www.transitionnetwork.org/admin/build/ctools-content

So I think the high prioiry things are now done. Ed?

Finally, 2d and 2e are bending Drupal away from its normal behaviour -- can't SRs just leave those options alone?!? Otherwise this is some coding to go in the Transition Extras module, and probably 0.5-1 hour's work by the time it gets to LIVE.

It's working good - thanks - we are still needing the ability for Social Reporter users to set the 'featured story' in panels admin:

2c. Set 'Featured Story' using Contexts in SR panels admin

This should be done ... Did you see my 2nd bullet?

"the 'social reporter blogger' can now... edit the one at /stories, go to 'Contexts' (under Variants -> Home: Social Reporting) and change the 'Featured story' by clicking the cog and choosing a new node by typing the title and selecting from the list."

This should be in place mate, I could when I tried but please retest...

Sorry Jim, as a social reporter test user1, I cannot see what it is you are referring to. I can edit the pane but can't find 'contexts' or 'variants'. Where on which page am I looking for these links?

jim — Wed, 07 Nov 2012 19:05:32 GMT

You don't edit the pane, you edit the Panel....

Steps:

Log in
Got to /stories
'Edit panel' tab at top
Go to 'Contexts' (below Variants -> Home: Social Reporting)
Change the 'Featured story' by clicking the cog and choosing a new node by typing the title and selecting from the list."
Save and update

All done... If you can't see any ot these bits let me know as it's just a perms tweak.

edit panel does not show up for social reporters. log in as test user to see:

Sorry Ed, I took of a permission I thought SRs didn't need... They did.

It's back. Steps above will now work.
