    Hi Maeve,

    First off, thanks for making this excellent plugin.

    I am having a problem with the order function. When I am logged in, as administrator, it works perfectly; I can sort both categories and products by simple drag and drop. However, when my client is logged in, as editor, she cannot access the order function at all. It simply does not show up in the left sub menu below the WP-Catalogue item.

    Is this the way you designed it? Or is it not working correctly? Either way, is there something I can do to allows users with the role of editor access to this functionality?

    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    Cheers,
    – Harmen

    Ah nice catch. Looks like I only gave Administrator access to this function. I’ll look at revising this to Editor in next release… but in the meantime, you should be able to install a User Role Editor plugin, and give editor the permission “Manage Options”. This will allow Editor to manage these options in this plugin.

    Personally, I always give my clients Editor permission, and use User Role Editor to give Editor “Manage Options” and “Edit Theme Options”.
