Thanks. I have this idea in the development plan and hope to offer such functionality to user of Pro version in 1-2 months.

If you familiar with PHP you may realize it using customized code from these posts:
https://role-editor.com/allow-access-appearance-menu-items/
https://role-editor.com/restrict-access-wordpress-widgets-area/

I suppose it is multi-site WordPress installation. In this case User Role Editor Settings is shown under “Network Admin” only.

Thank you. Fix will be available with version 4.11.

Hi,

There is no user interface for this in the User Role Editor. You may restrict access for posting to the list of categories this way

Hi,

It is possible to update User Role Editor Pro as any other WordPress plugin. You need install the license key to use this feature. After that you will get WordPress notification when update is available.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. I will include user menu access management to my development plan.

I work on access by role feature for posts and pages just now.

P.S. My apologies for the delay with answer. I did not get notification email about this post.

Hi,

My apologies for the delay with answer. Is this problem resolved already or you still need a help?

[Vladimir]

Hi,

The easiest way to achieve that – use “Admin Menu Editor” (http://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-menu-editor) plugin in conjunction with “User Role Editor”.

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Please send FTP and WordPress admin credentials to [email protected]
I will check what was happened with your site.

Hi Bernhard,

It is impossible with built-in WordPress capabilities as “Widgets” menu uses the same capability as the upper level menu “Appearance”.
We may block selected menu items for selected role by adding some code. Yes, I plan to add the interface for such functionality.

As about permissions for specific widgets this subject needs additional investigation. I have no ready to use decision for this moment.

Hi Joe,

If user with ‘administrator’ role has no any GF capabilities he automatically get full access to GF plugin functionality, line #841 of gravityforms.php file:

        else if(current_user_can("administrator")|| is_super_admin()){

            //checking if user has any GF permission.
            $has_gf_cap = false;
            foreach($gf_caps as $gf_cap){
                if(rgar($all_caps, $gf_cap))
                    $has_gf_cap = true;
            }

            if(!$has_gf_cap){
                //give full access to administrators if none of the GF permissions are active by the Members plugin
                $all_caps["gform_full_access"] = true;
            }
        }

Try to leave at least one minimal capability, e.g. “gravityforms_view_entries” and check how the access of administrator user will be changed.

Deactivate free version. Install Pro version.
Insert license key at the User Role Editor Pro Options page: Settings->User Role Editor.

Yes, you can assign specific page to edit to one specific user. Read this post for more details:
