Interesting issue.
Is it possible to look on the issue on-line?
If “Yes”, send super-admin login credentials to the [email protected]

[Vladimir]

I provide support via forum or email only.

Is it possible to get your theme or plugin copy with step by step instruction how to repeat an issue? If “yes” send the installation package to support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I will use it at localhost for the testing purpose only.

Just tested URE Pro with all add-ons activated together with my own plugin, which uses front-end calls to WordPress AJAX.
It’s built according to this doc. page:
https://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX_in_Plugins
It works fine as for logged-in, as for non-logged-in users.

So I need more information to repeat an issue.
If your functionality is included into the theme or plugin, is it possible to get it for the testing?

[Vladimir]

Let me know what checkboxes are turned on at the your site Settings->User Role Editor -> Additional Modules tab?

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Development version 4.19.b20 contains this functionality now. It is available from the download page after login.
Please test. The feedback is very appreciated.

[Vladimir]

It is possible to set posts/pages edit restrictions for selected users:
https://www.role-editor.com/allow-user-edit-selected-posts/
Plugin still does not support such restrictions for the roles.

You may insert the provided code into your active theme functions.php file.

[Vladimir]

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback.

Hi,

I agree with you. I will try to add secondary roles multiselect list to the new user creation page to the next version of URE.

Open “Admin Menu” for the “Administrator” role, as it should have access to the full menu. Check what capability is really used to protect those standard menu items for the custom post types.

Code:

// prefill roles at User profile editor Gravity Form fields
add_filter( 'gform_pre_render_10', 'frontend_profile_populate_roles' );


function frontend_profile_populate_roles( $form ) {
    
    foreach ( $form['fields'] as &$field ) {

        if ( $field->type == 'select' && $field->inputName==='primary_role' ) {
            prepare_primary_role_dropdown($field);
        }
        
        if ( $field->type == 'multiselect' && $field->inputName==='secondary_roles' ) {
            prepare_secondary_roles_multiselect($field);
        }
        
    }   // foreach
    
    return $form;
}


function get_primary_role() {
    global $current_user;
    
    if (!empty($current_user->roles)) {
        $roles = array_values($current_user->roles);
        $primary_role = array_shift($roles);
    } else {
        $primary_role = 'do-not-allow';
    }
    
    return $primary_role;
}


function prepare_primary_role_dropdown( &$field ) {
    global $wp_roles;
    
    $primary_role = get_primary_role();    
    $choices = array();    
    foreach ($wp_roles->role_names as $key=>$value) {
        $is_selected = $primary_role===$key;
        $choices[] = array('text'=>$value, 'value'=>$key, 'isSelected'=>$is_selected, 'price'=>0.00);
    }
    $field->choices = $choices;
    
}


function prepare_secondary_roles_multiselect( &$field ) {
    global $current_user, $wp_roles;
        
    $primary_role = get_primary_role();
    $choices = array();
    foreach ($wp_roles->role_names as $key=>$value) {
        if ($key==$primary_role) {
            continue;
        }
        $is_selected = in_array($key, $current_user->roles);
        $choices[] = array('text'=>$value, 'value'=>$key, 'isSelected'=>$is_selected, 'price'=>0.00);
        
    }
    $field->choices = $choices;
}

// update user's roles according to the on form selection
add_action( 'gform_user_updated', 'frontend_profile_change_user_roles', 10, 4);

function frontend_profile_change_user_roles($user_id, $user_config, $entry, $user_pass) {

    $user = new WP_User($user_id);
    $user->set_role($entry[6]); // Primary role
    
    // secondary roles
    if (empty($entry[7])) {
        return;
    }
    $roles = explode(',', $entry[7]);
    foreach($roles as $role) {
        $user->add_role($role);
    }
    
}

10 at the filter name ‘gform_pre_render_10’ is the ID of Gravity Forms form (with user profile fields including roles) linked to the “User Registration” add-on item with ‘update’ action.
Form ID=10 includes 2 roles related fields:
1) “Primary role” drop down field with “Allow field to be populated dynamically” flag turned on and “parameter name” value “primary_role”. It corresponds to the entry[6] at the code above.
2) “Secondary roles” multi select field with “Allow field to be populated dynamically” flag turned on and “parameter name” value “secondary_roles”. It corresponds to the entry[7] at the code above.

In general, ‘upload_files’ is enough to see all items of the ‘Media Library’ and may add a new one.
I deactivated URE at your site temporally and ‘subscriber’ role still did not see Media Library items. This showed that some other plugin or even theme blocks access to the media library items. After some testing I discovered that your site current setup requires at least the ‘manage_options’ capability to be included into the ‘subscriber’ role in order it has access to media library items uploaded by others.
So I added ‘manage_options’ to the ‘subscriber’ role and blocked all extra menu items with ‘Admin menu’ add-on. Please check.

[Vladimir]

I re-checked with your role copy and got a needed result with full list of Media Library items.
If that’s possible you may send me admin credentials to check your settings on-line (support [at-sign] role-editor.com).

[Vladimir]

My recommendation above (about adding special filter to the active theme’s functions.php file) works for the development version 4.19.b17 only. You may download it after login from download page. Use “Download” link under “Development version available” title.

[Vladimir]

What version of URE Pro do you use? Is it 4.19.b17?

[Vladimir]

I added special filter to the development version 4.19.b17. Try it. Add this code to the active theme functions.php to set this filter:

add_filter('ure_attachments_show_full_list', 'show_attachments_full_list', 10, 1);

function show_attachments_full_list($show_full_list) {
    return true;
}

It allows to show full Media Library items list for the restricted users.
