Admin access to 1 component

Post by nigelj » Tue Jun 08, 2021 8:00 pm

I need to give a few users very limited access to the admin interface - so they can access 1 component only.

I'm getting myself in a right muddle with the viewing access level and user groups, and so far can't get this working!

Is there a tutorial or article somewhere explaining this, or can someone explain the steps?

Thanks

These may help:

https://docs.joomla.org/J3.x:Access_Con ... t_Tutorial ???

https://docs.joomla.org/Access_Control_List

There are probably many other tutorials, but best way is to just search the web

There's also a useful extension that gives a visual view of permissions that might be an advantage.
https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/acl-manager/ (note, commercial extension ~ 10.00 EUR.)

Thanks for the links…I’ll have a read.

In the meantime I’ve got the access that I need working now…as always a silly mis-configuration by me was causing the problem!
