[Bug 1703262] [NEW] Deleting group journal entry for non-admin users

 

Public bug reported:

Mahara: 16.10.4
DB: Postgres
OS: Linux
Browser: any

Related to bug #1666102 (group member can delete journal).

When a non-admin group member tries to delete a group journal's entries
(i.e. not the whole journal), the page displays delete buttons next to
the entry. But, in actual fact, the entries cannot be deleted (which is
correct behaviour). This could make users confused. Please see attached
screen shot.

Perhaps don't display the delete button for users who cannot perform
this action. Or, display page "Access denied... You do not have access"
(as currently happens when trying to delete the whole journal).
