I will test UpdraftPlus and return to you with a conclusion.

Send me please a screenshot of role assigned to a user with restricted access.
Check if you really restricted access for this user to iThemes Settings page. If a related menu item is blocked by User Role Editor Pro, but you can access it via direct URL, give a try to a development version of URE Pro 4.25.b4. It includes some enhancement to the URL blocking logic.

It’s possible to remove all admin notices for the role:

Remove admin notices

iThemes plugin notice – I will test a described issue.

Revolution Slider don’t use custom post type to store slider as for example WooCommerce does. Plugin stores records at its own DB tables. So I don’t have decision to manage access to the sliders.

In order to help you I need to know exactly what plugin adds that menu items. Send me download link from wordpress.org or .zip copy (to support email) if it’s a paid product.
I use provided paid products for the testing purpose and at my local desktop only.

Contact Form 7 – “Integration” menu item is protected by ‘manage_options’ capability. If role has this capability it will be shown at ‘Admin Menu’ dialog for that role:

When I block it, it becomes unavailable for user with that role:

I will answer, little later today.
I’m preparing bug fix release currently.

Try “Admin menu access” module:

Hi Kevin,

Re-check that test user really have role, for which you set “Admin Menu” restrictions. Try to re-assign that role to him (remove role, update profile, assign role back).
Check if you use some plugin with admin menu editing functionality, try to deactivate it, to understand if there is any conflicts between plugins.
Yes, show screenshots with ‘Admin menu’ window and what menu items are not blocked.

This module helps with limited access to the plugins list for activation/deactivation:

Restrict plugins available for activation/deactivation

Only selected plugins will be available to user for activation. All other plugins will not be visible at the “Plugins” list.

Hi James,

Good point to follow. Thanks. Let’s go in this direction.

[Vladimir]

It’s enough to deactivate, activate back for WooCommerce. It restores its roles and capabilities in case it loses them.

I need more exact information about other plugins: download links or copy for the paid products.

[Vladimir]

Hi,

I need more details. Show screenshots with notes what do you wish to achieve and what settings did your make for that.

[Vladimir]

Send me an exact link for the Updraft plugin in order I should not guess what ‘updraft’ do you mean. Role capabilities list and ‘Admin Menu’ settings screenshot will be helpful.

[Vladimir]

If menu item is not visible at “Admin Menu” dialog it means that it is not available for the current role in the most of cases. ‘Yoast SEO’ uses ‘manage_options’ capability to protect its menu. Does role contain ‘manage_options’ capability?

‘Revolution Slider’ uses ‘manage_options’ also to protect its menu.

Hi James,

I see this mess every day hundreds of times during development and testing and fully agree with you. I open to the suggestions.

1st one – to add separate tab for every registered custom post type.

Can you offer something else?

[Vladimir]

Yes but this is a POS CASH REGISTER orders are placed by whoever is current logged in user.

Thanks. I will add an option via filter to restrict orders by order owner or by product owner (default).
