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

[demiurgia]

Ok sorry found my own answer - there is a patch for admin profiles for after the zen security patch - to save you searching it is here. I just installed works perfectly it seems although it wiped the permissions I had so i am going in and redoing them but all saving perfectly. thank you. before you install make sure oyu can login as the main no 1 admin as you have to do that to change the pther profiles.

Okay that all works now I have reupdated my permsiions. Only hiccup is the options for permissions changed and I lots a few from installed addons. Main one is the Image handler 2 which is no longer listed in the options even for the main admin. Pain really lol as it is wayharder to install then the patch. If anyone has an easy solution other than reinstalling please I would love you to point me in the right direction.

yay fixed that problem too it was purely a stupid issue with the name of a file so the admin mod wasn't picking it up. All is good and thank you all who work so hard on these contributions.

Hello,

After adding this addon, I have an error with my font in admin area.
I have english and vietnamese in my shop. This error happens only to the admin area, when I view shop in english then all vietnamese characters are broken. It's OK when I change the admin language back to vietnamese. It did not happen before.

Please see the attachment, it looks like a error in DB with utf-8 encoding but everything with DB is OK. Please advice !

Thanks.

Nevermind...ignore my previous message for now. Somehow when I downloaded ZenCart today I got version 1.27bugsecurityfix. I am not sure why the site was linking to an old version, but I'm going to try upgrading to 1.3.0.1 and see if that fixes my problem.

I still would like to know where I am supposed to issue the "Import install_admin_profiles.sql" command though.

Thanks!

Kuroi im a newby at database stuff, with this Delete the admin_menu_headers, admin_visible_headers, admin_files and admin_allowed_pages tables from your database and you're done.

where is that located ? In my Sql database? or somewhere in my shop site?[/QUOTE]Those are tables in your SQL database.

Oh - & I have problem of my own.

I have tried Admin Profiles out, on a brand-new 'test' installation. No add-ons, no modifications, no nothing.

Admin Profiles is brilliant - I have created a secondary account that has only the options that the user needs.

However, when I try to access 'Attributes Controller' in this new account a get the following message:
"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".

I really need this option to be available - any suggestions, please?

Did you enable it for the second account? Admin Profiles follows the most fundamental of security protocols, i.e. it won't let a new user access anything until it has been told that it's OK to do so.

Admin Profiles goes nowhere near that part of the Admin. I can think of no way in which it could contribute to this problem.

Where did you download Zen Cart from? 1.3.0.1 is a very old version too. If you're upgrading go to 1.3.8a.

The installation SQL is best installed via Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patches
