Unable to add term to Project Biblical terms list

Question

Hi,
I am a project administrator, and am able to add Biblical terms from a built in list, to the project terms list.
However, my coworker, who has the translator role, is unable to add terms, though she has all permissions. I was wondering if this is a glitch, or if things have been changed, as per a previous post, it was said that all users except observers can add and delete terms from a list.
I am currently on Paratext 8.0.100.72, and my coworker is using 8.0.100.71
Thanks

Answer 1

BEH,

When you look at Users, Roles and Permissions > Other Permissions is there a check for her name in the “Terms” column?

Yes, there is. I double checked that, as that was my first suspicion. The weird thing is that there is no error, but clicking on the star to add to the project list doesn’t do anything.
Thanks

We had a similar problem with project Biblical terms. It would not allow us to add certain terms, because after the migration evidently Paratext thought that the terms were already in Project Biblical Terms (even though they wouldn’t show up in the Project Biblical Terms list. So, in the Biblical Terms Tool, we switched to All Biblical Terms, found the term, and clicked on the star in the 2nd column from the left to delete from the Project Biblical Terms. Then, we were able to add the term to Project Biblical Terms.

Answer 2

Thanks for writing.
I looked back at the users roles and permissions again, and found the boxes unchecked, which I thought I had checked yesterday. So, either the changes I made yesterday didn’t hold, of this might be a case of operator error, as I might have accidentally made the changes on an auxiliary project, with the same users and a similar name.
Thanks
