Hi,

I reproduced your issue at my own test site. I will inform you when I find a reason and develop a fix.

Thank you for the report about this problem.

BuddyPress uses the single ‘bp_moderate’ capability, for its admin functions. You can not differentiate access inside BuddyPress using URE PRO for this reason.

Hi,

In order to have access to the posts list at the back-end and view existing posts from there user should have edit_posts capability. It protects the “Posts” admin menu/
By default edit_posts capability allows edit own posts, and create new posts by default.
URE Pro allows to force WordPress to use the separate ‘create_posts’ capability especially to allows add new posts. Go to the “Settings->User Role Editor->Additional Modules” and turn ON the “Activate “Create” capability for posts/pages/custom post types” option under “Content edit restrictions” subtitle. Do not forget to grant this capability to the roles who should can create posts.

publish_posts allows to publish posts. So revoke it from your role.
Revoke also (if granted) edit_others_posts, edit_published_posts, delete_posts.

Look carefully through the Digimember plugin settings. It’s possible it allows to select the list of roles which is allowed access the admin back-end.

Hi Daniel,

Try to deactivate all plugins and login under the test user. Will it help to achieve wp-admin? If Yes, activate plugins back one by one and make new test to isolate plugin which blocks access of new role to wp-admin. There are some plugins which has own settings – you have to select the roles to which you allow access to the admin back-end.

“Posts/Pages/Custom post types edit restrictions” add-on allows this. Turn ON “Own data only” option for user or his role.

Hi,

Do you write about this version?
Show at screenshot what menu do you wish to hide.

Hi,

I can not repeat this.
I tested SEOPress from wordpress.org and it did not remove ‘manage_options’ from my custom roles. I searched from its source code and did not find any commands related to ‘manage_options’ deletion.

Hi,

Send URL and administrator credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com, if it’s applicable. I will investigate your case. If you can setup a development copy it would be better.

[Vladimir]

Another question – if you repeat the test will it show the same result – all pages 1st, then the list according to restrictions?

[Vladimir]

Do you use any caching plugin? If Yes, switch off caching for the restricted role.

Hi Trevor,

It’s possible to allow/prohibit editing/creation of the post with selected categories for user or/and role using “Posts, pages edit restrictions” add-on.

[Vladimir]

Clarify also what do you mean under “user can ONLY view certain page IDs”. I suppose – view allowed pages at the list of pages available for editing at the wp-admin, right?

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Can not repeat this at the latest test. Check if user has another role(s) granted, which has edit restrictions also and may change the result which you wish.

Hi,

Thanks for the provided information. WPACU plugin uses ‘administrator’ role by default as the permission when defines its admin menu and checks current user permissions.
But it allows to replace ‘administrator’ with custom permission via filter. For example, code below provides access to WPACU plugin for any user with ‘manage_options’ capability:

add_filter('wpacu_access_role', 'replace_wpacu_admin_permission', 10, 1 );
function replace_wpacu_admin_permission( $cap ) {
    $cap = 'manage_options';

    return $cap;
}

You can add it to the functions.php file of your active theme.
