Hello there - I am sorry but how do you even access Chronicles? You seem to have a freeman account?

I am an editor for a friend's account for our shared world

Yes, free users cannot currently setup / edit chronicles as co-owners / editors.

Ahhh understandable, I looked it up and there seems to be a thread a year back or so regarding a similar issue? Is this an issue that is planned to be fixed or intended

I honestly thought that this was resolved! I've checked for the issue and deployed a patch - Co-Owners & Writers should now be able to edit a Chronicle. Editors cannot, as that role is intended solely for editing articles. Please note that permissions can be cached for a few minutes, so if the World's list of Authors (or Co-Owners) is changed, it may take a few minutes before the user can see the editing mode tools.

Can you test if invited Freeman can edit Chronicles now
? (again, when a Chronicle is loaded, it may take up to 5 minutes for changes to access to appear)

Hey! I no longer have access to Creating a Chronicle. Im having the owner create a Chronicle to see if i'll have access in editing it.

Krystalocke @ 05 Dec, 2023 11:41:04

Hi, I was given Co-Owner access to the world. I can create the chronicle, yet after creating it, the setup wizard still does not appear. Editing is still not possible

Yeah, my co-owner free account can create a chronicle, but it does not spawn the creation wizard. Just says that the chronicle has no content. And my main account which is the owner of the world can now also not get the wizard to appear in the chronicle where the co-owner is the author.

Thanks for the responses - Im still investigating why the creation wizard doesn't trigger!

Hello, I've made some progress on this, but apparently failed to add a note!   If a Freeman who is a Co-Owner creates a Chronicle, they should now see the Setup Wizard   I am investigating the next issue where (under the same scenario), the world owner (assuming they are Master+) cannot see the Setup Wizard.

Xuroth @ 22 Feb, 2024 05:14:37 Assignee

I am deploying a fix so that if a co-owner creates a Chronicle, it is editable by the world's owner (in addition to any Editors or other Co-Owners of the world the Chronicle is under)   Can you please test this @SoulLink @Krystalocke

Hi! Sorry for the late response, the setup wizard (from the freeman's perspective) does appear now. I will try to explore it further and follow up with any other potential issues. Thank you for the assistance
