Hi,

I have a recipe how to make it as an additional option to the role. It’s possible to convert the functional part to the must-use plugin for any subsite of your network.

Hi,

Check the browser JavaScript console for the error messages.

If you wish to have more control it’s possible to integrate this code snippet with User Role Editor as the additional options for role:

add_filter('ure_role_additional_options', 'add_visual_editor_only_option', 10, 1);
function add_visual_editor_only_option() {
    $item = URE_Role_Additional_Options::create_item('visual_editor_only', esc_html__('Visual Editor Only', 'user-role-editor'), 'admin_init', 'ure_remove_text_editor');
    $items[$item->id] = $item;
    
    return $items;
}

function ure_remove_text_editor() {
  add_filter('wp_editor_settings', 'ure_editor_settings');
  add_filter( 'wp_default_editor', create_function('', 'return "tinymce";') );
}

function ure_editor_settings($settings) {
  if (!current_user_can('administrator')) {
    $settings['quicktags'] = false;
  }
  
  return $settings;
}

You made all correctly except one thing: add as a 1st separate line to the file editor.php the tag

<?php

It will show to PHP interpretator where a PHP code starts.

Hi Karl,

Add this code to your active theme functions.php file or setup it as must use plugin:

function my_editor_settings($settings) {
  if (!current_user_can('administrator')) {
    $settings['quicktags'] = false;
  }
  
  return $settings;
}

add_filter('wp_editor_settings', 'my_editor_settings');
add_filter('wp_default_editor', create_function('', 'return "tinymce";'));

Hi Wolfgang,

Look at the “Settings->User Role Editor->Additional Modules” tab. If this option “Activate “Create” capability for posts/pages/custom post types” is turned ON, role should have ‘create_events’ capability to have permission to add new events.

[Vladimir]

Good. Thanks again.

[Vladimir]

Thanks. Classic situation when fixing one bug I introduced another one :). It was fixed with the development version 4.28.2.b5
Could you try it?

[Vladimir]

Hi Thorsten,

This issue was resolved with upcoming version 4.28.2.
Development version 4.28.2.b3. is available for testing from the same Download page (after login).

[Vladimir]

Excellent. I plan to publish this update next week.

[Vladimir]

Tested: It works at my development environment.

With active ‘Enable “unfiltered_html” capability’ option in mind open “Users->User Role Editor”, select “Editor” role and select “Deprecated” group of capabilities and check if “unfiltered_html” capability is really included into the “editor” role.

WordPress allocated additional memory for the user with ‘manage_options’ capability automatically at admin.php:

if ( current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {
	wp_raise_memory_limit( 'admin' );
}

That’s why you don’t meet a memory problem for admin user but you do for other users. Try to deactivate unused plugins or increase memory limit for PHP.

I found that a reason of this problem is a”Nginx Helper” plugin. Fix was included into the development version 4.28.2.b3. Please test. It’s available after login from the same download page.

[Vladimir]

Problem is related to the plugin which created this user capability:
‘Nginx Helper | Configga.error’. Do you know to what plugin it belongs?
User Role Editor user capabilities ID as JavaScript identifires. URE replaced spaces with special place holder as you can see at ‘Nginx_URE-SR_Helper_URE-SR_|_URE-SR_Configga.error’. But I can even imagine that some_one will include into capability ‘|’ character.
I will include a fix for this symbol to the development version update ASAP.

If such filter ends with high server load, another workaround is to use an additional role for no-community users instead of work with every user meta data. If you allow that no-community role with access to unexisted post, like ID 99999999, users with that role will see an empty posts list.

From my side I will look if I may add to URE own custom filter to change a default behaviour of edit restrictions add-on. So if you set such filter then all users without restrictions will see nothing.
