    Default Question about creating additonal Admin Users

    I know in Zen Cart you are able to create additional Admin users. However is there an add-on to create an Admin user by setting permissions? I want these type of users to be able to look at the statistics, orders, inventory and all of the reports. I want it to be forbidden for these type of users to change the important settings and layout. Is this possible?

    Thanks

    Use the Admin Profiles addon. I use it on the Holzheimer's site in my sig. I have full access to the admin. The store owner can check sales, reports and print packing slips.

    I believe the Holzheimer's site is still 1.3.7 and it works with that. I haven't had a chance to upgrade that site to 1.3.8a yet. If you have Zen Cart unzipped on your computer, you can use something like WinMerge to check the files against one another.

    If you do install it, don't forget to give yourself (or whoever'll be the admin for the site) full access to all the functions.

    shoot, I must've screwed up the installation. I got this error when I log on to the admin panel

    1146 Table 'pricet_zencart.admin_menu_headers' doesn't exist
    in:
    [select id from admin_menu_headers where header = 'Configuration']
    If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

    It's been a while since I did this. Did you run adminlevels.sql? If I remember correctly, you go into your CPanel (or other webmaster panel) and use phpMyAdmin to access the database. Use the import function to run the script which should add the tables for you.
