User Role Editor Pro 4.18 WordPress plugin was published 11.02.2014. This version changes include:

• Own custom user capabilities, e.g. ‘ure_edit_roles’ are used to restrict access to User Role Editor functionality. More information…
• Posts/pages edit access restriction add-on functionality was extended to the Media Library. Posts/pages attachments becomes unavailable automatically if correspondent post/page edit is prohibited.
• Posts/pages edit access restriction add-on works with custom post types now.
• Posts/pages view access restriction works with custom post types now.
• Admin menu items with empty user capability are available in “Admin menu access” add-on now. “Participants Database” plugin defines its menu this way.
• Some plugins use meta capabilities instead of real user capabilities, like ‘jetpack_admin_page’ in “JetPack” or ‘wpcf7_read_contact_forms’ in “Contact Form 7”.
• “Admin menu access” add-on recognizes such meta capabilities now. These meta-caps are replaced at “Admin menu” window with correspondent (mapped) real user capabilities for your further reference.
• Admin menu access add-on updated: ‘Howdy, …’ menu including ‘Logout’ menu item at top bar admin menu will not disappear after blocking ‘Profile’ menu.
• Top bar menu ‘SEO’ from “WP SEO from Yoast” plugin is blocked if user has no ‘manage_options’ capability or correspondent admin menu is blocked.
• Admin menu blocking is available for ‘administrator’ role under multisite. You should be superadmin. Do not give administrator access to URE in this case.
• More universal checking applied to the custom post type capabilities creation to exclude not existing property notices.
• New option “Edit user capabilities” was added. If it is unchecked – capabilities section of selected user will be shown in the readonly mode. Administrator (except superadmin for multisite) can not assign capabilities to the user directly. He should make it using roles only.
• Fixed JavaScript bug with ‘Reset Roles’ for FireFox v.34.

Sales of User Role Editor Pro are opened again. PayPal finished its verification process and removed restriction applied recently to my account. You may purchase Pro version of User Role Editor now.
My apologies for any inconvenience you may had due to this sales pause.

Thanks and Welcome! :).

If you tried to purchase User Role Editor Pro and got “Account Restricted” message, do not worry and try again next day. This is the temporal issue with my PayPal account. PayPal suddenly changed its status from “Verified” to “Unverified” and stopped all operations on it because of initial limits for unverified accounts were exceeded.
I provided all additional information needed to PayPal this morning in order they verify my identity again. I wait a result from them now.

Let’s wait a little together. I hope it will not take more than 1-2 days. Thanks for your patience and interest in User Role Editor Pro.

Regards,
Vladimir.
