<p>I have created a plugin.  It works fine for admins.  The plugin is in the CP nav and the admins urls work as expected, but when I login as a user who is not admin, the plugin will not display in the CP nav and the user cannot view the urls.  You get the error message:</p>

<pre><code> You don’t have the proper credentials to access this page.
</code></pre>

<p>What can I do to fix this?</p>

You must give your users the “Access [Plugin Name]” permission.

You can either grant that permission directly to each individual user from Users → [User Name] → Permissions, or if each of the users belongs to the same user group, you can go to Settings → Users → [User Group Name] and grant the permission from there instead.
