How to configure the vendor "Add Product Page"?

Hi,
I want to restrict the fields, which the vendor sees, when he adds or edits a new product on the front end.

Therefore, I unticked certain fields in CONFIGURATION / MAIN / ACCESS LEVEL. I want that all vendors have the same customized "Add Product" page on the front end.

When I now log in as a vendor, I still see the default fields = all fields on the Add Product page.
How come?



According to the help:

Default store access
The default store access is the rules which would be used by default for new vendors and new users.

the access rules are only applied to new vendors and users. However, I configured the access rules first, then added the vendor and assigned a user to the vendor accordingly. But if I log in as the vendor user - no change...

Thx

Hi,

The ACL default configuration is for the default access.
You can override this configuration per vendor. There is for the moment, no possibility to say that the configuration of the vendor is the default configuration. So the default configuration is copyed for the vendor during his creation.
When you change your default configuration, the configuration of the vendors is not modified. That's why you do not see your modification.
You have to change the ACL for your vendors.

ACL are read dynamically, you do not require to logout and login to see your modifications.

I will see to improve it for a future release.

Improvement would be highly appreciated. My planned shop is planned for dozens of vendors. So it will be very uncomfortable to do the same ACL for each vendor separately. And it will lead to errors. I think there should be a default ACL, which is then inherited by all vendors.

My work around solution could be to take out the PHP code, which I dont want to show, but I think this is not a very elegant solution...

Hi,

I am working on the feature for the 1.1.1 version. I think it would be an interesting point !
We would try to make more "little" releases in order to publish new features faster.

Sounds great!

By the way - something I have recognized:

1) There is an ACL configuration under HIKAMARKET / CONFIGURATION / MAIN
2) Then there is an ACL under HIKAMARKET / CONFIGURATION / YOUR VENDOR
3) Then there is an ACL under HIKAMARKET / VENDORS / "Vendor xy"

Number 2 and 3 I understand, but shouldn´t number 1 already be exactly that: a general ACL configuration for all vendors, unless it is overwritten under 2) or 3) ?

Hi,

I have added the "inherit" option for vendor ACL.
Configuration / Main : The default configuration of ACL.
Configuration / Your Vendor : The override of the default ACL configuration (could use "inherit").
Vendor / Vendor XY : The override of the default ACL configuration (could use "inherit").

You might want to have a default configuration of all of your vendors but give you more rights for your users and your account.
For example, the vendor XY could not edit the "product_code" but your account of "your vendor" could.
That's why there is a specific ACL configuration for "your vendor".

I think this gives great flexibility to HikaMarket AND a convenient way to "semi-automatically" configure new vendors. Looking forward for version 1.1.1. ...

Hi,

I update HikaMarket in order to fix a little problem with the product selection in orders.
So, the "inherit" option is include in the new package, even if the number version has not changed.
