SOLVED I'd like to assign a component twice to different joomla groups

Hello,

In my first rule i set as following:
Content and Components : com_EXAMPLE
Users and Groups: All groups except "Special"
ACTIONS: Set TemplateStyle on Succeed Actions: Template ALPHA
ACTIONS: Set TemplateStyle on Fail Actions: ##Ignore##

I set the second rule as following :
Content and Components : com_EXAMPLE
Users and Groups: Selected groups: "Special"
ACTIONS: Set TemplateStyle on Succeed Actions: Template BETA
ACTIONS: Set TemplateStyle on Fail Actions: ##Ignore##

But when Special user login and reach com_EXAMPLE component, he's still staying on Template ALPHA.

Help please.

Hi Wins,

I suggest that you switch on Debug mode in Chameleon (in the Options panel) and test out the scenarios. When you view the pages on the front end you should see debug output from Chameleon. It will tell you what is happening as it tries each rule in turn.

My guess is that the FAIL action in rule 1 is set to "stop processing" instead of "process next rule in chain". But you'll see that from the output. The other possibility is that it's not detecting the group properly.

Hope that helps,
Stephen
