    I need a sanity check… I have just installed MSM using the latest builds of EE and MSM.  I set up the second site and created a new folder in the root directory of the main site, copied and pasted index.php and path.php per the documentation. I don’t need or want to mask the control panel using an admin.php file, so I skipped that step.

    Here is the code in path.php for the second site:

    $system_path = "../control/";
    $site_name = 'blog';
    $cp_url = "http://mainsite.com/control/index.php";

    On the front-end everything is working just fine.  I can navigate to the second site and when I log in as a Super Admin everything works like a champ.  I then setup a second user group called Employees with the same permissions as the Super Admins group.  When I log in as a member of the Employees group the Sites Tab is gone.  I have checked the permissions for both sites for both groups and they are exactly the same.  Am I loosing my mind here or did I miss something really simple?

    Thanks

    swany10012,

    I then setup a second user group called Employees with the same permissions as the Super Admins group.

    Did you you create the new member group based on the SuperAdmin group using that feature or just create a new member group and replicate the settings of the SuperAdmin Group?

    What version and build of EE and MSM are you using?

    Are you using any extensions?

    Hey John,

    I figured it out this morning.  For anyone using the Solspace UI module you have to upgrade to version 1.0.1.  This is a known bug in version 1.0.0 of the module.  Here is the link to the post in the Solspace forums http://www.solspace.com/forums/viewthread/3485/
