As Kobra says, this is not the support thread for that mod. I don't believe that there is one. Nor do I recommend use of the mod.

The background is that the author of the "admin users restrict product categories" conceived of it as an extension to Admin Profiles and submitted it as a new version of AP (this is why you find references to AP in its documentation). Normally this would be fine and his enterprise was certainly appreciated. Unfortunately, the approach was deeply flawed. It does what it claims to do in a very limited way only, leaving open a number of ways to circumvent the restrictions.

This caused concern to me and this forum's administrators, since Admin Profiles is a key security tool for many site, so to for the "latest" version to be inherently insecure would be a major issue for many Zen Cart users. The decision taken was to "fork" the mod so that the existing Admin Profiles would continue to be available for those wanting a well-proven and secure solution and the new functionality would be available separately for those prepared to take a chance or to help develop it into something more secure.

I explained privately to the new mod's author the weaknesses in the approach and the work that would be needed to plug them, and to maintain the mod. Sadly he appears to have decided that this is too big a commitment. However, I understand as it involves a large number of changes across multiple parts of the Admin, would be virtually unmaintainable and would likely be overwhelming in terms of the support that would be needed for users.

Not an answer to your question I'm afraid. More a recommendation not to use that mod.
