Hi,

You can grant ‘manage_options’ to the selected role. Then using “Admin menu blocking” add-on block admin menu items, to which you don’t wish to give access for this role.

Thanks for the help and feedback.

You should see the similar result:

option_name field contains URE internals ID used by add-ons to save its data.

Roles ID would be found inside the option_value field for every record. It’s a string where a serialized PHP array data are stored.

Look at wp_options db table (wp_ is db prefix):

SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name like 'ure%';

All data are serialized arrays.

[Vladimir]

Understand.

There is no UI in plugin to automatically move add-ons data linked to the older role to a new one.

Hi WUCW,

You can not do it directly. Workaround, create a new role name2 as a copy of nor name1. Then revoke role name1 from all users, whom it’s granted and grant them new role name2.

Hi Sachin,

Unfortunately, developer of UCI plugin hardcoded that its admin menu is shown for the user with administrator role only:

public static function show_admin_menus(){
$ucisettings = get_option('sm_uci_pro_settings');
if( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$user = wp_get_current_user();
$role = ( array ) $user->roles;
}

if(!empty($role) && in_array( 'administrator' , $role)){
if ( is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can('manage_options') ) {
add_action('admin_menu',array(__CLASS__,'testing_function'));
}
}

$first_activate = get_option("WP_ULTIMATE_CSV_FIRST_ACTIVATE");
if($first_activate == 'On'){
delete_option("WP_ULTIMATE_CSV_FIRST_ACTIVATE");
exit(wp_redirect(admin_url().'admin.php?page=wp-addons-page'));
}
}


This part is interesting for you from the code above:

if(!empty($role) && in_array( 'administrator' , $role)){
if ( is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can('manage_options') ) {
add_action('admin_menu',array(__CLASS__,'testing_function'));
}
}

Hi Levent,

WPML provides own permissions system to the translated content. It supports the list of translators and allows to define for every translator the list of allowed languages. It should be enough to solve your task.

[Vladimir]

Yes, of course – this week, to be more exact.

Hi,

Yes, short video will be helpful as scenario to repeat the issue.

Hello,

Is it possible to look on site with admin privileges? If Yes, send credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com

[Vladimir]

Try this:
1) grant ‘manage_options’ to editor role via URE.
2) login under user with editor role, test if he sees ‘Import’ menu item.
3) User “Admin menu” to block for editor role menu items, which are not needed for this role, like ‘Settings’, etc.

[Vladimir]

I confirm, you can not revoke any capability from administrator role. This role is for the site superadmin. If you need a role with permissions little bit lower than default admin, create a new role as a copy of administrator role and then revoke from it the capabilities which you don’t wish to leave there.

P.S. A lot of plugins check if user has ‘administrator’ role, not capabilities. While it’s not much correct, we always should check capability, not role, but it’s the fact. That’s why event if you revoke some capabilities from administrator role, such plugin still will provide full access for user with this role.

[Vladimir]

OK. Thanks for sharing this.

Hi @TWarrior,

Good suggestion. I will group similar recipes and add them as a separate settings section to the plugin options with one of the next update.
