Hi,
very strange behavior. when access is activated it's giving editor role some admin privileges as well as showing some admin menus (though non functioning) to authors.
it's happening on one of my subsites, but OK on main site (haven't checked on other sub-site)
attached are 2 screen shots showing portion of menu, one shows what editor sees when access de-activated, and the other what they see when access activated.
thanks,
Scott.
Dear Scott,
I assume we are talking about the "setting" menu + other two items (WP eStore + ALL Import) in your screenshot:
lien caché
Please check these:
1) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Access control -> Custom roles
Enable "Advanced mode"
2) Find and edit user role "Editor"
disable those Custom capabilities from WP eStore + ALL Import plugin, and you can contact their support/author for the specific capabilities slug
Hi Lou,
there is something wrong with access.
In the screenshot:
lien caché
the role in the screenshot is editor.
1. PLEASE observe that TOOLSET is also there in the screenshot - the editor has access to many parts of toolset - that shouldn't be - correct?
2. WP estore and wp all import is for ADMINS only, and indeed when I deactivate access it behaves correctly (as I said in my post)
3. in access, the editor role is set to standard capabilities - I never changed it - "Custom capabilities" were never created.
Please help me fix this.
Thanks,
Scott.
Dear Scott,
Since I don't have a copy of WP eStore plugin in my localhost, I have tested the wp all import plugi, but there isn't similar problem in my localhost, the editor can not see those menu items by default.
I suggest you check as I mentioned above, like these:
1) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Access control -> Custom roles
Enable "Advanced mode"
2) Find and edit user role "Editor", in section "General capabilities", make sure you have disabled the option "manage_options". It can conduct the problem you mentioned above, and it is not enabled by default in a fresh wordpress installation, unless you setup it manually.
If the problem still persists, please try these:
1) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2017, and test again
2) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, also point out the problem page URL and view URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks
