Hi Brian,

Thanks for this checking. I just found your message at the Gmail SPAM box. I will work on the subject. Excuse me for this delay with response.

What version of User Role Editor Pro do you use?
Show screenshots with settings you made at “Admin menu” or let me check on-line. Send admin login credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com in the 2nd case.

[Vladimir]

Do you use the latest version of URE Pro 4.29.1? Version 4.29 did not apply admin menu access restrictions to a user with ‘delete_users’ capability, as WordPress core is_super_admin() function returns TRUE for such user.

I use ‘administrator’ role to look what capability protects a needed menu item, as ‘administrator’ has a full access to the menu.

In order to see ‘Administrator’ role at the list of roles at ‘User Role Editor’ you need to turn ON the ‘Show Administrator role at User Role Editor’ option at “Settings->User Role Editor->General” tab.

Hi Brian,

Show a screenshot of your GF user registration add-on form.
I have Gravity Forms User Registration Add-On copy version 1.6 for testing. If you use another version send its copy to support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I will try to reproduce your form and write a script for it.

I use a copy of commercial products provided by clients at the local development environment and for testing purpose only.

‘manage_options’ is enough in my case to add the existing user to a group.
This is a video how such user adds a new user to a group.
This is a video how I created such role and user:

Let me know what you can not do (screenshots, videos) from the actions shown above.

Just assumption. But it could be a quick workaround. If b2b role has ‘edit_others_posts’ (or quotations) capability, try to revoke it. It may help.

Hi,

I see the problem.

If you try to open other author post (like 103) at the back-end post editor via direct link:
wp-admin/post.php?post=103&action=edit
you will get permissions error message:
Désolé, vous n’avez pas l’autorisation de modifier les entrées dans ce type de contenu.

It’s possible if front-end editor code does not respect permissions set by WordPress. For example it may check if current user can edit_posts, but it may does not check if current user can edit this post ID=103 and send update directly to the database.

Could you send me (support [at-sign] role-editor.com) this front-end editor code (plugin or theme) copy for the investigation?

[Vladimir]

Do you mean ‘add user’ when ask about ‘add friend’?
If ‘Yes’, then add ‘list_users’, ‘edit_users’ capabilities to this user role.

[Vladimir]

I recommend to use “Admin menu access” add-on for this purpose. There is a link to the post with example at the end of that post.

[Vladimir]

BuddyPress requires ‘manage_options’ capability in order a user has access to the “Groups” and “Activity” menu items. So we have to grant to a role at least the ‘read’ and ‘manage_options’ user capabilities to allow it the access to the “Groups” at wp-admin.

It’s possible to block “Settings” and other admin menu items protected by the same ‘manage_options” capability, using User Role Editor Pro add-on “Admin Menu Access“

[Vladimir]

“Revolution Slider” menu item is protected by ‘manage_options’ user capability. If you have to give this permission to the role with a limited access you should block for such role unnecessary menu items (including critical one like “Settings”). Use “Admin menu access” add-on for this.
Example with similar menu access blocking is available here.

[Vladimir]

Thanks for letting me know.

[Vladimir]

Yes, send login credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I will look on the issue on-site.

Hi Luis,

>> if i go to see the post or edit the post in the administration, in the gallery i see all the images that i have in my website
Please give me more details on this. When you edit a post you see just a shortcode like [gallery ids="646,645,647"]. Where you can see just the images included into a gallery except of front-end?

May be you use some plugin to work with galleries?

[Vladimir]

I understood now.
Taking into account a quant of users and pages, we can not effectively realize this model with User Role Editor Pro “Content View Restrictions” add-on.

In theory, you can create 200 roles, assign them to 200 users. Setup view restrictions for every page. Then assign the unique role to every page menu item with “Nav menu roles” plugin. But it’s so large routine manual work, that a special custom decision may be a quicker and easier way for some developer.

If this is the only reason, for which you bought User Role Editor Pro, just ask for refund.
