Hi,
I have the rights module within my app.
I setup a standard webapp with yii, got everything working, rights module too.
Now my requirement is to use an email address for login purposes and as such have created a class that extends CBaseUserIdentity and UserIdentity extends that, have altered all my LoginForm model and UserIdentity, all that side is good, I login with email and password no problem.
I removed the rights tables to go for re-install as had changed superuser name in config to my email.
My user model is called Parent_Model and it resides in a module called identity so : application.modules.identity.models.Parent_Model.php in yii path terminology.
I have changed the rights userClass to Parent_Model.
When I call index.php?r=rights/install or index.php?r=rights all that is happening is a refresh to home page.
I have been trying to suss this for 3 hours solid and am completely clueless so far.
I included main.php config for your viewing pleasure.

You will see that I am also using Foundation522, however have tried it without etcetera.
Any help greatly appreciated, Thanks
EDIT:
I thought it was worth mentioning that, all the changes had actually worked, having cleared the browsers history, temp files and cookies it began working properly.
So it is worth noting that the model does not actually have to be called User, neither does the username column need to be titled anything specific.
I Still have layout issues, in that Rights is coming up with a very plain page with no templating, but when I have time I will crack that, reading through here will probably solve that, a little more complicated by using foundation, but well worth it.
I would like to say that the fine grained control, and ability to set permissions within the controllers (If you want.) Makes rights the extension of choice for me as it is very straight forward to use and makes the learning curve very, very soft indeed, I am completely comfortable with only 3 days use, and rbac is a new concept to me.
I would like to see a detailed tutorial part to the user guide regarding using business rules, how to create and use, a dummies version if you like, but other than that, this extension is superb, and going to the extensions site also showed me that maintenance of the code is on going.
My hat is off to the team developing this, you on to a winner.
If you havn’t already, I would seriously consider putting a commercial support plan together for it.
