How to hide Yoast SEO block in custom post type editor for a specific role ?

[loicdelahais]

Hello,

I created a role “Artisan” and a custom post type “Annuaire”. The role can edit the custom post type but I don’t want him to be able to edit the Yoast SEO block. I know I can hide this block for a custom post type but I want to be able to edit it as an admin.
Checkboxes are all unchecked for SEO for the role “Artisan” and only have custom capabilities like “edit-annuaire” etc but the role still have access to the Yoast box (not the admin link).

How can I do ?

Thanks !

Hi,

You can use “Meta boxes access” add-on. Block “Yoast SEO” meta box for role “Artisan” using it.

Thanks for the fast anwser! I tried Meta boxes but the role can only edit the title, even if i check all checkboxes for “Annuaire”. Moreover users with the role “Artisan” no longer arrive on the back office when they connect, instead they arrive on the front-end and need click on + Create > Annuaire to have access to the back office. They no longer have access to their profile either.
Maybe i missed something ?

Ok, I thought you had to check to give access, it was the other way around… It works but still have the issue that i want the role “Artisan” arrive on the dashboard, not the front-end. Is-it possible ?

I unchecked the “Read” capabilities unintentionally… It works, thanks you very much!
