The affected user group is CREW.
Currently, the CREW group has no explicit permissions allowed in JCE, and all actions (including Editor Profiles, Global Configuration, and File Browser) are inherited as Not Allowed.
This differs from SP Page Builder, where CREW has explicit Create/Edit/Edit Own permissions, allowing it to function correctly.
To avoid JCE switching to a restricted or fallback editor profile (which appears to clear the Color Library), we suggest assigning explicit JCE Editor Pro permissions to the CREW group, similar to SP Page Builder — at minimum:
• Access Component
• Editor Profiles
• File Browser (if required for color/media assets)
This should ensure the same JCE profile and Color Library remain available when ACL permissions are recalculated.
As a troubleshooting step, please also try the following:
- Temporarily disable JCE Editor Pro
- Clear Joomla and browser cache
- Re-enable JCE Editor Pro and verify whether the color library issue persists after changing permissions
This will help confirm whether JCE profile handling is the root cause of the color reset issue.
Please let me know the results.
