1) Almost every admin menu bar has correspondent menu item at the back-end left side admin menu. Use ‘Admin Menu Access’ module to check what user capability that menu item uses.
If role does not need that user capability – exclude it. This will remove menu item from the left side admin menu and admin menu bar both. In other case block that menu item with ‘Admin Menu Access’ module. User Role Editor Pro should block those menu items for selected role.
In case menu item is blocked at main admin menu but it isn’t at admin menu bar, send me the details (screenshot with menu item, to what plugin it belongs).
2) Do you wish that role do not view the specific page or do not edit? Edit restriction is realized for the users level only. I work on the same feature for the roles. It will be available with the next update (1-2 weeks).
3) Send the details about what menu items are not showing at ‘Admin Menu’ (screenshot with menu item, to what plugin it belongs). I will investigate this.

Karl,

Thanks again.
I wonder, why I did not get information about this obvious error during my own tests. I will test this part more thoroughly and return with a fix ASAP.

Hi Karl,

What’s your PHP version?
Any additional information, like PHP error messages from server log files, would be very helpful.

[Vladimir]

Thanks for the information.

Hi,

I confirm the bug at version 4.23.2 ‘Admin Menu Access’ module. It removes blocked menu item with additional parameters, like ‘Events-Settings’

edit.php?post_type=event&page=events-manager-options

but allows access it via direct URL.
This bug will be fixed by upcoming version 4.23.3 (this week).

Hi,

‘Apply to All sites’ option at the main site works for the currently selected role only. It’s not related to the additional modules (like ‘Widgets’) data.

Widgets, admin menu items available at different single sites may be different as single sites may have different set of activated plugins and themes. So I did not include network update feature for the additional modules from very begin. I see with time that some clients (including you) need such feature. I will add it module by module.

If you open ‘User Role Editor’ at the ‘Network Admin – Users’ you should see ‘Update Network’ button there. It opens dialog where you may add ‘Widgets’ restrictions data to the update process:

Code was written this way:
Widgets added by single site admin (superadmin) should be shown 1st. Widgets added by users should be shown below.

Could you describe in details your scenario in order I may test it myself and develop a fix if needed? What widgets you added as superadmin, what widgets as a user? What role has your non-administrator user who adds widgets (screenshot)?

I don’t have on hands a solution to block sidebars. I will check what we can do with it.

Hi,

ACF Pro uses to add its meta boxes not ‘add_metaboxes’ action as WordPress recommends, but ‘admin_head’ action. This was a reason why URE Pro missed them.

Thanks for your help in discovering this issue.
I included the fix for it to the upcoming version 4.23.3. I plan to publish it this week.
