I'm trying to disable access in the backend for the administrator and manager groups to some of the extensions, leaving access only to superadmins enabled. I've setup a subscription plan for this purpose, and am using the Integrations > Extensions > access By Component feature, with some components selected for which I want to disable access. Only super-admnistrators are subscribed to this plan.

Well, some unexpected things happen:
- If I login as a manager user to the backend and I try to access one of the disabled components, I get the following error: "500 - An error has occured. Unable to load pathway: administrator"
- If I login as an administator to the backend, I have access to everything, although it's only the super-admins subscribed to the plan, not the admins, so admins shouldn't have access.

Have I got anything wrong? Is there any other way to disable backend access to some of the components for all users except superadmins? Thanks.

Thanks for the tip about Settings -> Integrations -> Content/Extensions. Administrator was selected, indeed.

As for the errors, here is what I am getting when debug is on and I am trying to access the menu editor which is selected under By Component:

I'll try by URL parts and I'll report in a bit.

Adding the URL to By URL Parts doesn't seem to have any effect. I attempted to block CBJuice and tried both option=com_cbjuice (as instructed in the manual) and the full url, but nothing happens, still full access.
