Adding custom PHP

I want to add a Admin link (for users log in as administrators) and a Order History link (for users log in as, well users).

I only want them to appear when users are logged in.

I have and extension subscription. But I was wondering if there is just and easy code to insert on the template files.

Thanks

As for the order history page, this is already created for you. To view the order history page, the user has to verify their email first. As for the admin login, the users for the admin and the front end are not linked, so you will not have a single login that is created for both the frontend and the backend, so you'd have to create that functionality before creating a backend login from the frontend of the store.

Ok that was confusing :)

Alright let me ask the question better:

When a administrator logs in I want him to see a link to the Admin section. When a customer/user login in, I dont want to him to see the link to the Admin section.

basically:

If user logged in & administrator { Show Link } else { Do not show link }

I just need the PHP code for that.

Ah, sorry about that, I was actually thinking about PowerStore 2 when I said that. To get a link to the admin pages, you would want to modify the links like this:

php:
<?php if(isset($_SESSION["UserID"])) { ?>

      <a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>users_Profile.php">My Profile</a>
      <a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>users_LogOut.php">Log out</a>
      <?php
          
if(isset($_SESSION["UserGroupID"] && $_SESSION["UserGroupID"] > 1) {?><a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>Admin/">Admin</a><?php }
      } else { 
?>
      <a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>users_LogIn.php">Login</a>
      <a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>users_Registration.php">Register</a>
      <?php ?>
      <?php if(isset($_SESSION["WA_Store_Cart_Items"]) && $_SESSION["WA_Store_Cart_Items"] != "") { ?>
      <a href="<?php echo($assumedRoot); ?>cart.php">View Cart</a>
      <?php ?>



let me know if that works for you.

Let me know if it works or not. Logging in to the frontside pages will not automatically log you in to the admin pages even if you are an admin. The admin link will only link you to the admin pages so you can log in.
