Hello,
I created a new user, and gave her the default Editor role. I logged in as this user to check permissions, and found out that this new user can not edit any published posts, even though I am using the default Editor role.
I made a clone of the live site to debug. When I disable the Access plugin, the user can edit again.
I have not altered the default role, so Access should not be affecting the user, but it is.
Please advise.
Hello,
Please try this:
- login as the new editor user
- create a post
Check if you can edit other edit other posts
Luo,
I tried, and the issue was still happening. I had to go into Access and uncheck the box that says that Access controls Posts and Categories. I don't know why it is disabling permissions when that box is checked, because I had all the permissions turned on.
There isn't similar problem in my localhost, please try these:
1) Upgrade the access plugin to the latest version 2.6.1, you can download it here:

2) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2019, and test again
3) Create a new editor user, use this editor user to create a new post, and test it again
4) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, also point out the problem page URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

Luo,
I haven't had time to dig into this issue. I resolved this temporarily by going into Access and changing the setting so the Access does not control posts.
I will look into this issue soon.
OK, please update this thread when your website database dump file is ready. thanks
