Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] User Access to Content in Tabbed Interface

[<ad...@tu...>]

George,

There are a couple of things you can do in this situation.  One, you can
create a link to the user side and put it in an existing tab.  Just make
sure you set admin=0 in your link definition in controlpanel.php and it
will show up for general users.  Two, you could create a Jobs tab on
install and move your admin and user links to this tab.  This may be a
better solution since it will be more intuitive to your users.  Just
remember your admin link needs admin=1 and your user link needs admin=0. 
Hope this helps.
