Hi, I installed 3.1.1 on my Joomla 1.7 website.

The option panel seems broken though, i've got the following error under "icon theme"

Icon theme
Fatal error: Class 'JElement' not found in /home/user/public_html/joomla17/administrator/components/com_joomdoc/elements/icons.php on line 16

Thanks.

Maude

Maude...I could nearly duplicated your post. I have a fresh install of 1.7 with 3.1.2 Standard installed. I went with 1.7 so I can see how user level access works.

I've got the exact same error you have when I attempt to view the "Options" of anything.

I did notice, also, that if I publish a document there is no icon that that document is actually published under the "Document Published" column. I will admit that I am a complete Joomla noob, here. I just wanted to see how JoomDOC handled user level access for a possible future project.

Yes, the same error, the same versions of Joomla and JoomDoc...

But i am not new to joomla, while i remmeber and was using original DocMan a lot of time ago :-)

in administrator/components/com_joomdoc/elements/icons.php file add before line16:

require_once(JPATH_SITE . DS . 'libraries' . DS . 'joomla' . DS . 'html' . DS . 'parameter' . DS . 'element.php');

to remove error message and allow config dialog to be accessible.

Finally, here is more Joomla's solution:

it does exactly the same as previous one, only it is simple to understand

Thanks, slavko. I consider this problem fixed thanks to you :)
