Adding Shop Owner but not with full Admin Privileges?

[Guest]

Typically, I'm sure the "owner" should have all the privileges in the world, but in this case, a friend of mine wants me to set up an online store for her, since I built, maintain and host her main website.  She only wants to be able to add product, check inventory, etc; just the basic business end of things.  As far as the way the store looks and functions, the less she has available to click on, the less chance there will be of her breaking things and my not being able to fix it (not knowing what in the world she clicked on). In fact, I can tell you that she is terrified of all the "bells and whistles" of osCommerce and is already saying "I can't do this".

All that to ask:  is there any way to add her as a user but will limited access so that she only has to concern herself with adding product, overseeing customers, shipping, etc., and not have all the other settings to freak her out (or to freak me out if she messes with them)?

I'm using the latest Frozen release from Github, Bootstrap 4.

Thanks!  😊

Sorry, but this info is contradictory. If it’s FROZEN, it’s BS3, if it’s BS4, it’s EDGE (not FROZEN).

Anyway search the marketplace for admin levels, there are several add-ons available. All of them are older and may need some update.

It's an old one so you will need to check and update as required.

Administration Access Level Accounts 2.0

Personaly I would make sure nightly backups are set for the site and keep a master back up of all the config files and config db. Use control panel to restrict wirte to config fles to only you. You can then simply recover from any mess made by customer.

This thread may help ...

This will require updating it to the current version of osC, though.

Quite right, my mistake.  osCommerce 2.3.4.1 CE

Oh, thanks for that, I'll mess with it now, while I'm still setting up the test store, and see what blows up, ha.

Unfortunately, that refers to both Frozen and Edge. Frozen is the snapshot of Edge, with Bootstrap 3, that was frozen a year ago. Edge is still under active development, and has Bootstrap 4 (including Admin side). Gary doesn't believe in making it simple for store owners to know (or report) what version they're running.

The discussion regarding the Confusion over osC versions has been moved to it's own thread.   I knew I shouldn't have commented here.  Please use this thread if you want to continue that conversation.
