Bug Description

When logged in as staff on the demo.mahara.org and choosing this option under

Institution information > Institution statistics the message
Institution statistics are not available because there are no institutions available to your user.

This person is a member of the institution Mahara School

This works for site admin and also site staff - this doesn't work on myportfolio either

It looks like the user needs to have access to all institutions for this report to work.

Craig

When the staff statistics access option is off, the message is misleading, and should be something like:
"This should be changed to something like to Staff statistics needs to be
turned on for the site to allow staff to view these."

Hi Craig,

Does the user have institution staff or institution admin access? If you're talking about staff, you would have to check if institution staff access is set up for the stats.

Hi Melissa

The member has institution staff access. How do you check if institution
staff access to stats is setup I can't see a site setting on the menu for
this.

If it isn't setup then I don't think the option should appear on the menu.

cheers
Craig

Hi Melissa

I found what you were meaning there is staff statistics access setting that
isn't turned on.

The message that comes up says
Institution statistics are not available because there are no institutions
available to your user, this is not the reason

This should be changed to something like to Staff statistics needs to be
turned on for the site to allow staff to view these.

regards
Craig

Bug#1086569 Fixed the statistics display message

When the staff statistics access option has been
turned off,the institution statistics display message has been
made clearer letting the user know they have no access.

Also fixed problem where user is admin in one institution and staff
in another but can not see stats for the institution they are a staff
member in (when staff statistics are turned on)
