[#39383] - Smart search: results don't take care of the parent's rights
- New
- Medium
- Build: 4.2.5
- # 39383
Steps to reproduce the issue
Create 2 groups, 2 access levels for these groups, two users, one for each
Create 2 content categories, one for each access level then two articles, one for each category add the same word in the article title or content
Log in with an account. Search this word with smart search
Expected result
You should only see the result of the article belonging to the category for your group/access level
Actual result
If the access level of the articles are not the same than the category one but public or registered, the two articles are listed as results even if one has a category you can't access
System information (as much as possible)
Joomla! 4.2.5
PHP 8.1
Additional comments
The old search component take care of the parent access rights and the articles from the category you have no rights to access are not listed

Do you find it normal that these results whose parent is not accessible to the guests are displayed by the smart search?
Doesn't anyone take care of correcting the errors of the smart search? :(
First of all, this is something that is not easy to fix. Second: You are asking for volunteers to donate their time to fix something that bothers you. There are three possible solutions:
- You fix it yourself and provide the fix to the community
- You pay someone to fix it for you/everyone
- You wait until someone takes this up, but which might require you to show some patience.
What a constructive response!
Did you forget the ACL and that in Joomla! when a category is private, all its childs are private?
Do you think it's normal that private data are displayed to all?
I'm not a coder. There is no reason for me to pay someone to fix a bug from the developers who managed and now manage the smart search!
This is a bug that affects not only me but all users.
You can clone the thread!
