OK never mind. I had broken the inheritance of the document library that contained the .js files where only owners can see it. That’s why only owners were able to see the graphs. Stupid me :D

We’re all using the say operating system and browser.

While I was troubleshooting I forgot that I used a 3rd party application called SharePoint list form extensions to play with the view permission, at the time I created the graphs, there was a rule I put in that allow owners only to view. I took out that rule and it’s still the same.

Hi,
I need to know which operating system and browser your college are using.

Wonderful stuff. I did this a while ago and it worked just fine, but my colleague (who is not an owner on the site) cannot see the graphs. He doesn’t see any error messages, just blank. Is there something I’m missing?

I have published v2.7 of the script – as this is a cross post and i do not have edit access, here is the “change log”:
This version is the final fix (i hope…) for the web selector problems for non Site Collection Administrators (SCA).

For SCA’s there are no changes, but for those not SCA, I have abandoned my attempt to auto populate a web selector and gone for a input field. The user must write the URL of the web to load the list collection from. The reason for this is the fact that the method “GetAllSubWebCollection” is not accessible to non SCA’s, and that the manual iteration trough all webs caused prompts for credentials as it hit webs the current user did not have access to.

You will still get a credential prompt if you try to load the list collection for a web you have no rights to, but you will not get stuck in a “endless” loop of credential prompts.

New features:
In this version i have added the option to restrict edit access for a individual chart to a specific SharePoint user group. You find this setting in the Advanced option area in the “Edit Chart GUI”:

This is no “real” security setting as it only skips the rendering of the “edit chart button” and does not restrict the edit rights to the chart configuration list. If you want a true security setting you must change the permissions for each “chart” in the configuration list, or the permission for the configuration list itself.

Important!
v2.7 requires you to add one column of type “Single line of text” to the chart configuration list. The name of the field must be exactly “EditAccessGroupID” (without the quotes). Optionally you can delete the configuration list and have the script recreate it. The latter will result in you loosing all your existing chart configurations.

Please let me know if you find any bugs.
