I have used toolset custom code functionality to write custom code.
Now I want to selective access to some code snippets to an engineer to help me trouble shoot. I would like to avoid sharing all the custom code with the new hire.
Is there a way in Toolset that I can restrict access to specific custom code snippets based on user role?
If not, are there any workarounds I can use?
Hello,
No, there isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset plugins.
But Toolset custom codes will be created as PHP file in your website folder:
wp-content/toolset-customizations/
So you can create SFTP/FTP access for your engineer, and grant read/write access for each snippet item.
Thank you. I have two follow up question.
1. I am using SiteGround and can only give FTP access for a folder to the engineer. As the toolset customizations folder contains all the snippets, how do I give access to a single file? If I create a new sub folder in toolset customizations, that is probably give an error. How do I solve this?
2. On the front-end, I see the import/ export functionality in Toolset. How can I remove this access for a role?
You can follow SiteGround document to setup permissions to single files:

In my opinion, after your engineer login to your webserver with ftp, limit him in the "toolset-customizations" folder:
- For those specific items, give him write permission
- For other items, don't give write permission
