Admin Profiles (for v1.3.x only!) Support Thread

still good to see you here.. and now understand your absence .
as for your reply, it opens more concerns and would seem to further complicate the the idea. for example doing as you suggest would work for a Specific admin user, this would have to be hard codes each time a new admin user was added ?, and not controllable thu the super admin.
Another question would be, are there any changes needed in the database to reflect or control these sub users, or are these already accounted for.....
Can you recommend someone who could code this for me?, really hard to find a reliable source on the freelance boards. :(

It would be difficult to "further" complicate this idea. It's inherently complicated due to the wide range of interventions into some of the the most complex and non-overrideable core code that would be needed to achieve it.

I certainly wouldn't recommend hard-coding this for specific admin users. The Admin user system should be extended to make setting user access to categories maintainable.

The forum is not the place for offering recommendations about coders. But I will say that this would require advanced knowledge of Zen Cart and I suspect that there are just a handful of people who could carry it off. I would very much doubt that any of them would need to go to the freelance boards to source business.

Understood, I would have expected a PM if you did know of some opposed to a forum recommendation because of the nature of the request.
I have found that the freelance boards are not what they were a couple years back.
Any suggestions on where to look would be appreciated

For the time being you would have to make code changes. These would be done in in the admin/index.php file as follows:

1) Find out what your admin ID is (you can see it to the left of your name on the Admin Settings page

2) Open admin index.php and fin the following lines

PHP Code:

---

<div id="coltwo">
<div class="reportBox"> 


---

3) Insert the following between them

PHP Code:

---

<?php if ($_SESSION['admin_id'] == <your admin ID>) { ?>

---

4) Go down 12 lines and insert the following immediately after the </div> line

PHP Code:

---

<?php } ?>

---

5) Now do the same between the following lines

PHP Code:

---

<div id="colthree">
<div class="reportBox"> 


---

and after the first </div> line a further 12 lines down.

Excellent solution Sir. You are a stellar example of the Zencart spirit!

Thank you. :hug:

Sounds like Kuroi needs to avail himself of my father-in-law's old saying:

Welcome back.

any help?

Hi,

I am having a problem with th 3rd party mods, if I give the permission once and then later uncheck it the third party mods do not disappear from the menu, they donot allow the user to make changes but still appear in the menu as a list item, this happens only with the third party mods, not with the others.

Also I have made the file changes for 1.38a and rechecked my changes to the box files it all seems to as it should be.

Please help...

Kuroi
on the user_tracking_tools_dhtml.php, how is it called?, maybe I'm just looking in the wrong area......

scratch that last post......

on the user_tracking_tools_dhtml.php,
I get an error after uploading and then accessing admin

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: page_allowed() in........user_tracking_tools_dhtml.php on line 30

I will second the thanks to Kuroi from Vitalwares on how to modify index.php. I only wanted the employees to see the 'orders' and 'new orders' info so I suppressed half of column one and all of column two. Worked like a charm.
