This module may help:

Allow user to edit selected posts and pages only

It does not contain ‘view own items’ option yet. But if you input this user ID to the ‘Restrict by author’ field:

he will see his own products only.
Development version 4.25 (beta) (available at the same download page after login) includes a fix for the orders. So if you have a test copy you may test how it will work in your case.

Hi Jawad,

I still fix some minor bugs in the dev. version from time to time. So it will be better to try it 1st at the test copy of your site.

Thanks for the feedback and help with testing.
Upgrade to the higher membership plan will be the best gratuity :).

FYI: If you decide to purchase “Lifetime” plan until June, 13, 2016, you may pay a regular price decreased on the $29 you payed already. Just send a sum to my PayPal account (support [at-sign] role-editor.com and inform me about that. I will upgrade your membership plan then.

Hi,

If you are interested you may test development version 4.25.b2, which fixed this bug.
It’s available from the download page after login.

Hi Jawad,

Development version 4.25.b3 is available for testing. You may get it after login from

Download User Role Editor

It includes some related fixes:
– Admin menu access module: Enhanced technique of blocking links: order and quant of URL parameters does not matter.
– Visual Composer issue is fixed too.
I appreciate if you will test it and share your feedback.

I tested with ‘Envira Gallery Lite’. It uses ‘edit_posts’ capability. It’s available to your authors for this reason. You may block it with ‘Admin menu access’ module:

Hi,

I confirm the bug.

When WordPress generates a link to revisions page it checks if user can edit a revision. But it is definitely not in a list of allowed posts. User does not get a valid link to a revisions for this reason.
So if I get a request to check if user is allowed to edit a revision I should check if he is allowed to edit that revisions’s parent post.

I will fix it in upcoming soon version 4.25.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Thanks for the idea. I will look how to make it.

[Vladimir]

Thanks for the information.

I created a copy of author role, added ‘manage_options’ capability. Marked ‘Events->Settings’ as blocked. I do not see this menu item. I can not access it via direct URLs (tried all from your list).
It’s strange that we get the different results. The recent test was done with version 4.24.5.

Hi Chad,

Auto update is available. Check if you input valid license key at the “Settings->User Role Editor->General” tab (under “Network Admin” for the multisite configuration).

Existing settings should be saved after update. Just in case re-check “admin menu access” settings if you set them for some roles.

To update plugin version manually:
1) deactivate plugin
2) remove all files at user-role-editor-pro folder via FTP
3) upload new files from .zip you downloaded from https://role-editor.com/download-plugin
4) activate plugin back

Hi Jawad,

I confirm a problem with blocking VC menu for the users without permissions to access to it. Thanks for reporting it.
I will develop a fix.

Regards,
Vladimir.

Hi,

You may select what to block at the top of “Admin Menu” window at “Users->User Role Editor”:

[Vladimir]

Hi,

I checked with the latest 4.24.4 with these results:
1) Blocked “Events->Settings” menu item is removed from the admin menu as expected;
2) edit.php?post_type=event&page=events-manager-options#general URL direct access is blocked when you use “Block Selected” model
3) edit.php?post_type=event&page=events-manager-options#general direct access is not blocked when you use “Block not selected” model. So you can not use “block not selected” model with this plugin. With this model I block only links which belongs to main menu, not selected, and not located inside allowed pages. As you can see ‘edit.php?post_type=event’ is allowed in this case.
I see that this logic may be enhanced. I will work in this direction. But current version work this way.

Hi Josh,

It’s a 1st report about a problem of this kind. Let’s try to isolate a reason on the dev site. I wait username/password so I can to login with admin privileges and try to isolate the issue.

Hi,

It may be useful to add a user interface for this feature. Thanks. I will consider to add this functionality to one of a future versions.

Currently may add a code to the functions.php file:
