Menu access control by user roles

Hello,

I would like to know how to control access to the website menus by user role, with the Toolset settings, or by code. If it is possible only with code, can you give me a direction?

Here is an example of functionality found in another plugin:

I'm waiting

Thank you

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Toolset plugins have no effect on the WordPress menus. To conditionally display menus for users based on their roles, you will need to use a plugin such as the one you mentioned or similar:
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-menus/

Or you will need to create custom code. Check this example where a different menu is displayed for each role https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39701323/wordpress-menu-depending-on-user-role

I hope this helps. Let me know your feedback.
