    Default [Duplicate] Cannot give permission to create other product types in 1.5.0

    As superuser, I can create a Document - Product in my 1.5.0 site. But when I set up other users, even if I check every box and give them permissions to access everything, they cannot add any new products except for the default "Product - General" type products. Choose any other and they get the "Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource. Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect. Sorry for any inconvenience." message.

    Maybe I should add this is NOT an upgraded site. It is a new 1.5.0 site.

    This is a known bug with version 1.5.0. You can either follow the instructions in that thread or upgrade to 1.5.1

    My admin/profiles.php file does not have either the before or after line of code in that bug thread. It has
    <?php echo zen_draw_form('profileBoxes', FILENAME_PROFILES, 'action=update') ?>

    When I edit that line to <?php echo zen_draw_form('profileBoxes', FILENAME_PROFILES, 'action=insert') ?> I am still not able to create any other product types except Product- General if logged in as anything other than superuser.

    The bug in 1.5.0 caused you to be unable to give non-superusers permission to access pages within the admin side of Zen Cart. After applying the patch you still need to go to "admin" -> "admin access management" -> "user profiles". Click "edit" next to the profile you wish to add or remove permissions.

    For non superuser accounts to be able to create / edit products, they will need permissions under "Catalog" for "Categories/Products" and "Products". Additionally under "Product Types" the product types you want the profile to be able to use. When done select "Update".
