Hiding Fields In "add New Product" Not Working

Hi everyone, I'm trying to hide certain fields in the "Add New Product" area for vendors (but not for me 'root-admin') and I've followed all the steps in this page: http://forum.cs-cart.com/topic/28778-hide-fields-on-vendor-add-new-product-form/ .

I've edited my /design/backend/templates/views/products/update.tpl file.

The problem is, none of the changes I make there are taking any effect! I've even tried to just add a hidden tag to see if it shows up in the page source and even that isn't showing up.

I've cleared my site cache (Administration » Storage » Clear Cache) and I've emptied my browsers cache and still don't see any changes.

What's going on here?

Try to clear cache manually be renaming the var/cache directory.

Wow! That worked! Thank you!!!

If that's happening... how can I fix that? What might be going wrong?

File permissions.

Or ownerships
