Multiple root administrators
The add-on lets you grant root privileges to several store administrators and allows each of them to work through a separate account.
What it is for
In the standard configuration, root privileges belong to a single administrator account. The add-on lets you grant the same privileges to other administrators, so several responsible employees can perform administrative operations from their own accounts.
Key features
- Grants root privileges to multiple administrators.
- Grants and revokes privileges from the administrator profile.
- Keeps a separate account for each root administrator.
- Preserves the selected privileges when an administrator profile is updated.
- Prevents root privileges from being disabled for the primary administrator with user ID 1.
How it works
An administrator profile contains the “MS: Multiple root administrators” block with the “Give root privileges” checkbox. When the profile is saved, the add-on writes the selected value to the user's root flag. For the primary administrator with user ID 1, the checkbox is always selected and cannot be changed.
