**Solution:**
1. Make sure you're logged in
2. Run the command: `php artisan admin:make-super your-email@example.com`
3. Logout and login again
4. Try accessing `/admin` again

### "Role not found" Error

If the command fails with "Role not found":

**Solution:**
Run the seeder to create roles:
```bash
php artisan db:seed --class=RolePermissionSeeder
```

Then try the make-super command again.

## Adding Admin Link to Main Navigation

To make it easier to access the admin panel, you can add a link in the main layout.

Edit `resources/views/layouts/app.blade.php` and add this in the user dropdown:

```blade
@if(Auth::user()->isSuperAdmin())
<a class="dropdown-item small" href="{{ route('admin.platform.index') }}">
    <i class="bi bi-shield me-2"></i>Admin Panel
</a>
<div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
@endif
```

---

## Security Notes

- Only users with the `super-admin` role can access `/admin` routes
- All admin routes are protected with `role:super-admin` middleware
- Destructive actions (delete, restore) have confirmation dialogs
- Bank account information is encrypted in the database
