The guide states the things to note, like Admin Access, Custom Code, Notes, APIs, etc.
Admin Rights
For security purposes, this template has limited rights for potential customers. This means that you will not be able to use the admin features to their fullest until you purchase the template and enable admin rights.
Note: Users will not be able to access the admin page unless granted admin rights.
It is possible to access the admin panel via Demo Admin user. But, for security purposes, the features are not enabled unless purchasing the template and turn this feature on.
In order to grant the admin rights, please follow the instruction below.
- Go to the
dashboard
page -> Data -> App data -> All Users tab. Select any user record and edit it. Set the Admin field to yes:
Note: Remember to hit the SAVE button.
An additional limitation is set on the
dashboard
page via Variables datatype access_rights
field. If a demo user with admin rights gets to this page, he will not be able to access the page or do any manipulations because of the conditions on edit/delete actions.
Under the Data tab click the icon in the Editor, go to the Data Type Variables and look for the
access_rights
field with the Yes/No boolean type. To enable the editing rights set the value to
yes
, so the admin user will be able to manage the platform, deleting users, emails, sms and files on the dashboard
page.Note: Remember to hit the SAVE button.
The dashboard page has buttons with admin restriction conditions in the workflow which are locked when
access_rights
is no.If you have already purchased the template, you can simply delete the following workflows in order to gain full access to dashboard features:
- Find other variants of Delete buttons in workflows to remove them. Namely with the condition "Search for Variables: first item's
access_rights
is "no".
- Complete. After these changes, you can check the respective actions on page.
Congrats: You have successfully granted admin rights. Now you can use all the admin page and its features as an admin user.
Also, delete the warning group that says to check the template's documentation:
- Locate the container Group "wrapper_done” and delete it:
