User groups are group of users given special permissions and privilege to access sections of the store. For example, Administrator is a user group. Now we have two administrators for our store, since we added a new administrator in the previous lesson.

Now you will reach the OpenCart Store user groups section, wherein user groups are listed. Right now, we only have two user groups i.e. administrator and Demonstration(demo).

On hovering the (+) sign, Add New label is visible. Click on the same button and a new section is visible to add a new user group.
