lupole Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I have a site that is very modified. We allow vendors/customers to list their products. To do this I am using Multi Vendor Shipping which of course takes care of vendor shipping issues very well. I am also using Adminsration with access levels, with the addon Extension_KategorienAdmin_3. This setup seems more geared toward an employer employee type structure. Giving employee's access to the categories they work in. The reason I say this is because with Extension Kategories I can give access of a vendor to a selected category which is great but this also gives this vendor access to all products in that category. This is my security hole. I need a way to link vendor ID's to the products they list, so that a vendor can only view or edit the product(s) that they list. I have not found any contributions to match my needs. Is there one by chance I missed? :blink: Quote

Is there one by chance I missed? :blink: I installed Supplier_Admin_Area-V0-7 because it will do what I want, "keep products only availble to the Vendor/Suppllier who listed them." However, It has to many short comings to satisfy my needs and wants, as well as it just doesn't work well at all. Also, I have to many great features in my product insertion page such as product SEO URL's, Bundled products etc.. All aspects of my setup works perfectly with absolutely no errors and no miscalculations of shipping and tax cost. Even if a Vendor is in a different state then I am and a customer from this vendors state makes a purchase, the appropriate tax are charged. When a product is inserted, it is already assigned to a selected vendor_id from a dropdowm list of vendors. I need to have it so when a new vendor signs up to list products they can not edit any prior listed products by other vendors. Only after they insert a product will they be able to edit that product and any other's they list. If any one is willing to help find this sollution I would love to work with you. My store is live and I will give you a test account to view my setup. If this last step gets accompliced, I will have a supper store. By the way, I removed Supplier_Admn_Area. It will be a great contribution. It just wasn't right for my needs. :blink: Edited February 10, 2007 by lupole Quote
