Editor discussion panel message display issues by role
Editor discussion should display the following chat data;
- All messages posted by reviewers
- All messages posted by editors
- All messages posted by admins
Issues encountered during testing;
- Currently, the reviewer's chat messages are only visible to other reviewers. Messages should be visible to all roles who have access to the Editors discussion i.e. Reviewers, Editors and Admins.
- Reviewers can only post a message to the Editors discussion intermittently. Sometimes it works sometime it doesn't
- Editor/Admins cannot see messages posted by reviewers. Editors/Admins should be able to see all posts made to the Editors discussion.
- Editors/Admins should also be able to post messages as required - this is working as intended.
- System notifications automatically posted to the Editors discussion should only be visible to Editors assigned or Admins. It is not necessary for Reviewers to see system notifications.
