Answers.Text: I'm trying to configure the discounts (i.e. access CiviDiscount) using a user in the Super Admin user group so it's not permissions related; I edited my question to clarify that while the autodiscounts and applying a discount code manually work in the front end, our issue really is we cannot access the CiviDiscount GUI to administer the discounts

Body: <p>Is CiviDiscount compatible with CiviCRM 5.9?
  We can't make it work with a 5.9 install on Joomla 3.9.1.
  Thank you</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong>
  The issue is when trying to access the CiviDiscount GUI (e.g. Administer >> CiviDiscount), the user is taken to CiviCRM dashboard/home instead of the CiviDiscount UI.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using a user in the Super Admin user group so it's not permissions related.</p>
  
  <p>Discounts in the front end (both autodiscounts and entering a discount code), e.g. in event registration, work fine, but we can't administer the discounts.</p>
  
  <p>Our work-around is to do this in the d/b.</p>

Title: CiviDiscount compatibility with CiviCRM 5.9
ThreadText: # CiviDiscount compatibility with CiviCRM 5.9
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-01-03)
  
  Is CiviDiscount compatible with CiviCRM 5.9?
  We can't make it work with a 5.9 install on Joomla 3.9.1.
  Thank you
  
  **Edit:**
  The issue is when trying to access the CiviDiscount GUI (e.g. Administer >> CiviDiscount), the user is taken to CiviCRM dashboard/home instead of the CiviDiscount UI.
  
  I'm using a user in the Super Admin user group so it's not permissions related.
  
  Discounts in the front end (both autodiscounts and entering a discount code), e.g. in event registration, work fine, but we can't administer the discounts.
  
  Our work-around is to do this in the d/b.
