Steps to reproduce the issue
- Open the file administrator/components/com_content/access.xml
- Add a new permission which has underscore character (for example content.view_content) to component section. Example:
<action name="content.view_content" title="View Content" description="Allows viewing articles" />
- Go to System -> Global Configuration, select Articles component, Permissions tab (http://localhost/joomla35/administrator/index.php?option=com_config&view=component&component=com_content).
- Try to change permission for View Content permission
Expected result
The permission successfully saved
Actual result
The permission is not saved.
System information (as much as possible)
Joomla 3.5.0
Additional comments
It was possible to working well before well before 3.5.0. So this issue can break third party extensions which use have permission name contains underscore character.
I can confirm this as a changed behaviour in 3.5 - I suspect it is something to do with the ajaxifying of that page
