Smart tabs messes up for instance when you want to list your users. The click on the "Users" link in /admin/user/user automatically takes you to add user - since I just added a user, and it's not possible to get to the list users page.
I only enabled this module because Module Grants Monitor required it. I have to disable Module Grants Monitor I guess.

rdeboerHi Boletus,
Will investigate. In the mean time, have you tried the page exclusion list at Administer >> Site configuration >> Smart tabs ? Try entering
Or, if you don't like the memory function that Smart tabs brings to your pages, but would still like your tabs on Module Grants Monitor Accessible content page to work properly without any issues, then simply go to Administer >> Site configuration >> Smart tabs and blank out the "Pages to include" text box on the page. If you want the Smart tabs memory function for the Accessible content page only, then enter in the "Pages to include" text box the following line:
You may have log out and log back in to refresh your session, which contains Smart tabs' "memory".

rdeboerI've been trying to reproduce this, but so far haven't been able to. Can you please confirm you are using version 6.x-1.5?
Do you have Smart menus enabled as well?
Comment #3
Boletus commentedHi,
Of course I wan't to help you find this bug. I disabled the module but can enable it again for testing. I used 6.x-1.5.
Is this a possible JavaScript bug?
As I told you, I created a new user and when returning to that menu, the listing of the users (the normal default view of the link users in the admin interface) was not reachable.
I am using Google Chrome and a theme called Zeropoint - but have the Garland theme as my administration theme.
What can I do to test? I have Firebug in Mozilla but I am not a programmer so I'm not sure what to look for.
Cheers
Comment #4
rdeboerThanks for the details. Javascript or your browser are unlikely to have anything to do with this, as Smart tabs uses the HTTP session on the server for its "memory".
Have you tried any of the workarounds described in comment #1 ?
The following all seem to be manifestations of the same underlying issue, which unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce yet in 6.x.1.5:
#778058: Cannot get to admin/user/user/list after creating new user (this issue)
#755134: Smart tabs 'stick'
#707782: When clicking first tab (i.e. View), Smart tabs redirects to last clicked tab (e.g Edit)
Marking as duplicate and will be tracking this issue under #707782: When clicking first tab (i.e. View), Smart tabs redirects to last clicked tab (e.g Edit).
Comment #5
Boletus commentedNo haven't tried the workarounds yet! The project is in waiting so I haven't got the time. It is not decided yet whether the publishers are going to have to go through draft-publish moderation of their content. I ran into this problem since Module Grants Monitor depends on Smart Menus. Does it really have to depend on it? It would be good to practice sound software developing theories as "loose coupling". :) If it's not really necessary that is.
Comment #6
rdeboerI am all for loose coupling... but the double row of tabs in the Accessible content menu option introduced by Module Grants Monitor becomes user-UNfriendly without Smart tabs. Hence the dependency and a configuration option to make Smart tabs only do its thing on selected pages, like accessible-cont*. See also the comments at the bottom of the Module Grants project page.
Are you aware that the latest version of Revisioning comes with a canned "View" (requires Views) that displays information similar to Accessible content ? Furthermore you can configure this View to your heart's content. This way you won't have to use Module Grants Monitor.
Comment #7
Boletus commentedNo I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for pointing it out. Will have to look into that. But views still give me the creeps. It never works the way I want. :)
Comment #8
rdeboerThe configurable starting View is called Content summary and will appear automatically in the navigation menu when you enable the Views module.
The following fields are available for use in this (or your own) view:
o Node: Revision moderation (whether the node is subject to moderation)
o Node: State (pending, current or archived)
o Node: Number of revisions
o Node revision: State (similar to Node: State, but for individual revisions).
Each of the above come with an associated optional filter. Try out the Content summary menu item and all will become clear.
