Feature Request: add limited ACL for Shop Managers

Post by morphinestyle »

Hello!
It would be useful to have an ACL for store managers so that they only show the phoca cart menu item in the backend menu, so they can only manage and edit the store.

Hi, try to see:
https://www.phoca.cz/documentation/115- ... nistration

You can hide different parts by CSS in administration for some specific user groups. Even the menu items can be hidded by CSS if needed.

It is not true ACL as mostly such items can be accessible through manual link but in 99% this is suffictient for the common users to restrict their access to some parts.

This is another cool idea!
You gave me an idea that I hadn't thought of.

But actually I meant to ask one more thing with my thread: make sure that an admin can ONLY access the shop!

(I made a "Shop Managers" rule)

I use this plugin for some sites with Phoca Cart to redirect admins directly to Phoca Cart control panel after login

It's useful, but in this way a Shop Manager can also edit articles and/or modules or other website settings: seems to be only a simple redirect.

I made an ACL rule: in this way a "Shop Manager" can only modify the shop.
And with the disabled css, like Jan shown, I can also limit more their operation range.
