What is multi user role based admin?
For beginners, let me explain what this article is all about. Suppose you have online shopping cart. You have several employees, each with their own role. that is, some are responsible for data transmission (data carriers), others for customer support and others for sales. In this case you don’t want all module’s data to be available for every module. So you have to assign roles to them and then they have the privilege to only have limited data access.
I won’t be creating a full admin panel in this tutorial. I will show you a trick with MySQL database and PHP logic to create a multi-user administrator.
