On a quick look the issue seems to be that core.manage within com_media is required and makes sense can you check whether that permission has been granted: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/4.0-dev/components/com_media/src/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php#L55

@zero-24 the permissions there make no sense at all which I guess @Hackwar realised when he changed it for 4.1 #35886

However @particthistle then changed it further with #35863

Neither of those fixes help or are correct. Core.manage = access administrator interface

So of course a publisher etc would not have permission for that. I am guessing that it just needs core.create ?

Can anything be done about this? My client can't do any useful front-end editing without access to images.
Edit: I've added the 'Manager' user group to the profile, but that's only a workaround.

I have a similar problem, although in my case the publisher can access the media manager while editing an article, but not access it while editing a module. It is about an ImageHoverGalley extension where my client has to manage the images in the FrontEnd. The same error message appears: "You do not have permission to open this. If this is incorrect, please contact a website administrator."

Publisher rights are set to "allowed" in this module.

The problem is apparently not related to any template or extension. Among other things, I tested with a new Joomla 4.0.6 with only Cassiopeia and the concerned extension.

Can this be repaired?
