Receiving vmError: You are not an administrator on a single vendor

[wbyers]

This issue only appears on a single program category ID. All others work as intended. We have a single vendor based user account that has the proper permissions. Does anyone know what could be the issue here?

We've only got a single vendor and that vendor has a single user that has the appropriate permissions.
Does anyone know what on earth could be causing the issue this Time?

Anyone?

Which vendorId is set for the category? Can you check the db entry? btw, which vm version? which joomla version?

[wbyers]

vendor ID 1. we have joomla 3.7.2 and virtuemart 3.2.

Also I don't know if it matters but the issue also seems to be intermittent

Try to change your alias to something really unique.

[wbyers]

what do you mean by change my alias?

[Milbo]

the alias, slug of the product.

[wbyers]

ah,
We already have the unique slug for each category
Nevermind, looking at the slug solved the problem.
The slug for the category had something extra on the end.
Removed that extra bit solved it. Thanks for pointing me to it.
Forget that Doesn't work for more than a single entry, any idea why that would be.
It's unique already, so I can't quite make heads or tales of what's wrong.

[Milbo]

When the slug is not unique, it adds a number and tries to create a unique slug, but it stops after 20 tries.

[wbyers]

okay, so if the slug is good, what's the issue?

[wbyers]

Because It's still just this one category

When the slug is not unique, it adds a number and tries to create a unique slug, but it stops after 20 tries.
