I recall (from previous testing) the RIN-editor BBcode permission system being quite contra-intuitive and even resulting in not being able to use the default BBcode anymore and I had to disable the extension and delete data in order to restore the default phpBB permissions for that BBcode.

I'll try to test that one of these days (no timeframe) as this would be a blocker for validation.
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.

For example, one of these systems AI users is supposed to use it for his articles. This AI user is actually a normal user, but PHPBB does the setting of the texts instead of logging in with it.

The command X, however, is to be output in the texts and the permissions in the RIN editor are set to Admin and Moderator. Of course, the AI user has the same permissions from PHPBB. However, code X does not appear in the texts as usual, but is simply ignored and output in its text form.

If I now remove all permissions so that all users can set and use the command X, Rin Editor will process this command correctly. But as soon as permissions are assigned to certain groups, it can happen that it is not executed. Something sometimes seems to clash with the user permissions in PHPBB, that RIN Editor does not go through the permission groups and only processes commands if all users are allowed to use that code.

I know this is difficult to understand and understand where exactly the error lies, but I still wanted to mention it now.
The permission system was not a feature I planned, but it was only added due to the request below.
viewtopic.php?p=14762956#p14762956
viewtopic.php?p=14763021#p14763021

This permission system of this extension not intended to work with permissions of phpbb.
This function is just there so you don't have to make settings in several other places but everything can be resolved in the configuration screen of this extension.
In other words, I don't see anything wrong with what you're saying, since this extension doesn't check phpbb permissions. That is, you will have to leave phpbb's bbcode permission as default, otherwise it will conflict with this extension's permission system.

If you think this permission system of this extension should also reflect the phpbb settings, well in that case sorry I don't have enough programming skills for that.
What I can do is simply remove the permission system and leave only the feature of hiding the buttons for certain groups, which was the initial idea.

this usually happens when you enable the caching system before having configured all the permissions.

But It's strange as PHPBB tells me you're not allowed to use this BBCode or if Users using a BB Code they should not be allowed to use within the permissions of RIN Editor, PHPBB cares well about these settings.

If you tell PHPBB has nothing to do with those settings that those limited BBCode with the setup permissions from RIN Editor also disallow those to use within MChat for the people. Those I wanted to use in MChat must be set to allow all even if RIN has nothing to do with MChat right? That's they bit the strange things confuses me.

Yes, in most chases the setup is made to even not display all buttons with codes for the users to hide them, but still being inside the editor for custom groups. That's the only way I need to use those settings with the permissions.

as mentioned above too, if you don't leave phpbb's bbcode settings at default the settings will conflict...
if you only make settings of permission of bbcode within Rin Editor it is to work as it should.

yes the settings you make about permissions within Rin Editor are global and will affect all extensions.

Well, the only way to solve what I already said in the post above, removing this editor's permission system. Since the permission of this extension was not thought to work with the permission of phpbb, let alone be able to handle the permission of other extensions.
