    Hi

    I am trying to block access (to anyone less than Administrator), to a specific page.

    In this instance the admin page is mydomain.com//wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=acf

    I’ve tried going to the Admin Menu, but it doesn’t appear there – is there a way I can force block access to the page?

    Hi,

    “Custom Fields” menu created by “Advanced Custom Fields” plugin is available for the role if ‘manage_options’ capability was granted to it.

    If menu is not available to a current role, then it is not visible at the “Admin menu” window.

    I see.

    I use URE to enable the manage_options for the Editor role so that they can access and edit the ‘Appearance > Menu’.

    Is there a way of enabling ‘Appearance > Menu’ without granting the complete manage_options?

    ‘manage_options’ is not required for access to “Appearance->Menu” at all.
    ‘edit_theme_options’ is needed for that.
