Here are 2 intermittent problems we have noticed with the Document Exchange Module Settings (this is for someone logged in with Administrator rights):
1. When we try to alter the settings, the “Root Folder for module” pull down menu has been empty. Also, the “Root Category” won’t let us expand categories to see sub categories. This doesn’t happen every time but it happens frequently and regardless of whether I am view, edit or design mode.
Note: both regular DNN module settings and DMX settings have been altered at this point. Also module permissions have been set (usually Inherit View Permissions from Page is turned off and explicit view and edit permissions set).
2. Once I get the pull down menus to work (going in and out of the module settings several times), after clicking Update, one of three things happens (and I cannot see anything different between the three that would have something different happen):
a. The module appears not to be on the page – actually it is on the page according to the DNN database, however View permission is missing for the Administrator role (Administrators still have Edit permission, and other roles have View permission however)
b. The module shows the AJAX UI even though a template view had been chosen
c. The module shows correctly
I know the problems in 2 sound like they could not be caused by DMX (module permissions and settings not committed to the DB), however it has happened so many times on DMX module instances that it can't be a coincidence.
We have DMX 5.2.2 on DNN 4.9.5 by the way.
