vtb tasks are being hidden

[Jonathan Brown]

Hello.

We have Virtual Task board members who are not able to see various tasks Assigned to him/her from the owner.   I was able to create a user and add him to the board and could duplicate the view board member view. There are tasks missing.     If i get give the created board member admin it can see all the tasks.   so i am guessing its a role permission but having no luck identifying it.

The task is assigned to the board member as primary and I verified the board member is a board member.

Is the owner able to hide select tasks from certain members?

My understanding is:

Specific to Visual Task Board task assignments

• The OOB design is only 'members' can see their tasks in the Task Table under My Work
  • for an 'assignee' to see a task in my work; you must elevate that individual to a member of the applicable VTB board.

• ref: Script include: VTBTaskSecurity
  ref:   // Currently, vtb_task.* ACL all lead to the same board member check

Just going through and resolving these.

The issue was if there are multiple boards (guided and free) that are using the same card info the users have to have access to both.   The manager had his normal freefrom board.   Then for some reason created a guided board off of that board to sort the tasks.   Since the end users didnt have access to that new board that blocked access from the normal one as well. Only for tasks that we showing on both boards.
