I need to limit what the Product manager can do. This to avoid miistake or confusion with all the possible menu/option of Hikashop.

In my case I need only to allow (better say "only to show") the "product","categories" and "import" under "product" main menu" ; "orders" under "Orders" main menu and "Customers" under "Customers" main menu

I set up this user as "Managers" in standard User manager of joomla 2.5.11

After that going in the option of Hikashop Dashboard I allow "Manager" to Access Administration Interface. In this way he can access to Hikashop component.
At the end I guess to go to manage the "access level" under System/Configuration where I unflagged all the voice I don't need for that user.

Unfortunately no difference in the system , the Manager user still see and access all the hikashop menu.
Where I'm wrong doing this configuration ?
thanks for any help.

Hi,

It's probably that the "Inherit parent group access" option is turned on in the configuration and that the parent user group of the manager group has access to these.

thanks Nicolas , during my test at the end I also tried to put the parameter of inherit parent group to YES.
Now I repeated the test only coming back on this parameter and IT'S OK.

I found only a little issue because I can access to the menu "Help" following the Component-> Hikashop -> Help . I have denied it from the Access level.
In this case once I'm in the Help windows , from there I can access to "Affiliates" , Affiliates sales / @clicks ; "Display" , Custom field/filters and complete help menu.

Is there something else I could check ?
thanks in advance

Hi,

In the file "administrator/com_hikashop/views/menu/view.html.php" please replace:

				'check' => 'ctrl=documentation',
				'icon' => 'icon-16-help',
By:
				'check' => 'ctrl=documentation',
				'acl' => 'help',
				'icon' => 'icon-16-help',

Hi Jerome ,
I've done the changes but nothing change on the menu.
Maybe I do something wrong .... I found 2 times the row you suggest and I apply 2 times your modification.
The 2 lines are at row 329 and 335 . First on Array and after on children Array.
Please let me know if my modification are wrong.
Thanks in advance

Hi,

You're talking about the joomla menus of HikaShop. These menus are not modified by the access level options because they are not displayed by HikaShop but by Joomla and you can't restrict them by access level.
You would have to delete them manually from the database, but they would come back on next update.

Regarding the Affiliate area, please make sure that you deactivated it in the Access level area and you won't see it in the HikaShop menu.
