Component access to Various Backend User Groups 22 Nov 2012 14:08 #5620

I've just discovered that my installed component is visible to Administrators, but not Managers. This is half good half bad since I discovered it while trying to limit certain views from anyone except Superusers.

I've read the Joomla tutorials, but am confused about how to have my component appear in the backend for any backend user, but two of the views should not be visible to anyone except the Super User.

There is an important ACL missing. The simple access for viewing is not available.
You cannot define wich page to acces or not.

You must define it manually.
Code it in VIEW.HTML.PHP at the beginning of displayXxxx()

Hope it helps.
Coding is now a piece of cake

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
