Hello all,
First, pls forgive my limited experience here as I'm by no means a core Joomla dev:
I am cstomizing the Joomshopping component for a website I manage and I ran reently into an interesting question: In JoomShopping, some tools are only available to admins using the $user->authorise function.
However, it turns out that if Superusers can view and access these tools, it is not true for Administrators.
Codeline involved is: $access["module_name"] = $user->authorise('core.admin', 'com_jshopping')==1;
With core.admin being set, the administrator cannot use the tool whereas the superuser can.
The only way I could make it work is by changing the line to:
$access["module_name"] = $user->authorise('core.manage', 'com_jshopping')==1;
First question is: am I misunderstanding anything or making any mistake here?
Second question is: if I make a mistake can somebody tell me how to fix this, otherwise what happens here?
Thanks
Philippe

True, except that, if I’m right, there’s no “development” or “customization” zone on http://forum.joomla.org/ and since this is linked to a basic functionality of Joomla, the extension developer will kick me out.

I'm sure he could still help you. You're still wrong here.
