ACL doesn't work consistently for me and i'm baffled why.
if i 'reset' it by wiping the permissions for a page in mysql db directly, and the acl checkbox grid has the grey background, then it will always work the first time. After that it's a crap shoot. it's always random, usually 10-15 trys before something works, and then it's never what i just tried or with any rhyme or reason.
so either i'm not doing something exactly the way it wants (do i "Check to add this Acl" first, or grant first or do both at the same time?) or something else is wonky with my installation.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
extra info i'm doing this as the config-file admin attempting to set ANY permission to HomePage. i can edit other pages no problem (mysql db access works)
* ALLOW_ANON_USER, ALLOW_ANON_EDIT, ALLOW_BOGO_LOGIN , ALLOW_USER_PASSWORDS all set true
