Some of the file is mentioning about admin profile ver 1.0.5.

Please advise the steps I should I do by looking at the stage I am at now. Or which installation file I should use to install the module.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Warm regards,

Just follow the step-by-step guide in the install.txt file.

Any references to Admin Profiles 1.05 therein are equally applicable to 1.0.6. References to Zen Cart 1.3.6 work equally well for 1.3.7 and 1.3.7.1 (which is why the mod hasn't been re-issued). The reference to admin_levels is a mistake and should read admin_profiles.

I have no idea what to do about this, but it is not a big problem anyways. If I really need to change admin permissions while I am at the office, I just login with my mobile phone internet connection and make the changes there.

When there's a problem there's also always a cause. But sometimes they can be hard to find or very subtle. Sounds like you got one of them! Thanks for updating us Thomas.

kuroi,

I installed the Admin Profiles mod and everything is working just fine, except there is no link in the Tools drop down menu to view the User Tracking information. I ran the SQL query and double checked to make sure it inserted correctly, which it was.

There are no precise instructions on where to put the user tracking dhtml file, it came in a folder called extra so I would assume it goes there. I guess I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I have installed lots of mods to my Zen Cart installation and have yet to run into any issues, except for this.

Please help! If you can! I really want to know what the other users are doing! Thanks so much.

Thanks Kuroi,

I'll have a better look at the install.txt file.

Thanks.

Hi Kuroi,

I've been using admin profiles 1.0.6 for a while, but have recently been trying to integrate it into a new shop at install time (with a bunch of other modifications, with yours + extra boxes at the end).

If I run the install, login, then run the install SQL through the sqlpatch.php file, admin profiles works fine.

If I include the SQL as part of zc_install/sql/plugins/ (after renaming it to work within the mysql_"filename",sql convention of the installer) I just get a blank menu.

If I go to any standard admin page, I get the access denied message.

If I go to:

http://site.com/admin/admin_control.php?adminID=1

I get:

Admin Profile for test (test is the admin name)

with a Save and Cancel button, but nothing else.

For what it's worth -- if I append the SQL code to the end of zc_install/sql/mysql_zencart.sql and not use the plugins system, it still gives me the same issue.

Any ideas on where to go and start looking for a solution?

Regards,

Paul

I have your mod installed. I had to re set my admin user and pass using the https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=2.

Now I can log in but I cannot access anything.
How can I remove the admin profiles and get back to a regular admin evvironment ?

You probably do not need to un-install; rather, you need to complete the configuration. Goto....

Admin -> Tools -> Admin Settings

Select the yellow/orange P next to your admin account, and select everything.

You can uninstall by working backwards through the steps in the install.txt file and undoing each of them.

Easier though would probably be to use phpMyAdmin to change the admin_id of the Admin that you inserted to be 1 (you would need to change the ID of any admin that is already 1 to something else first) which should cause all your previous accesses to reappear.

Are you using a database prefix?

Sorry Haley

The user tracking extras were added to the package by somebody else. I've never actually used them myself. I don't believe that they go in a directory called extras though. I think that was added to indicate that they were extra to Admin Profiles rather than as an indication of their final destination.
