It’s possible with ‘ure_supress_administrators_protection’ filter (return true for it) to make users with ‘administrator’ role visible to user who can edit users, but such user will can edit “admin users” then. URE does not offer ‘read-only’ mode for users page.
So after you switched off a default URE protection for users with ‘administrator’ role you have to:
1) use ‘map_meta_cap’ filter to block editing users with ‘administrator’ role;
2) exclude ‘administrator’ role from WordPress dropdown lists in order to prevent creation of new administrators by yor Editors: ‘editable_roles’ filter.Hi,
Yes, it’s possible to limit user or role to publish just into selected category. Use Edit access restrictions add-on for this purpose.
Try to install this code at the stage copy of your site as a Must Use plugin.
It fires the same code as URE Pro does on user “Update Network” button and replicates current user and its permissions from the main site to all other sites of the network on the ‘woocommerce_checkout_update_user_meta’ action, that is when a user makes successful checkout for his purchase.
Let me know, how it works at your side. Again, try it at the test copy, do not use it at production site until you are sure that it works as expected.
It’s possible to realize similar access model with ‘Edit restrictions‘ add-on. But will need some special efforts with terms structure and restrictions criteria. Read this article to look how you can use categories to separate edit access between different authors and editors.
Hi,
“WP simple booking calendar” protects its admin menu item with WordPress built-in user capability ‘manage_options’.
If you will grant it to your user role, you may block other critical admin menu items using “Admin menu access” add-on included into URE Pro.Currently via a piece of custom code only. I will write one, and publish it here little later (2-3) days.
It may be other plugin settings. Try to deactivate all plugins temporary and re-test. Then activate plugins back one by one and make another test to isolate a problematic one.
Hi,
It’s possible to show ‘administrator’ role inside User Role Editor roles drop-down lists. Turn ON related checkbox at “Settings->User Role Editor->General” tab.
As you have active WooCommerce – this plugin automatically redirects to front-end any role without ‘manage_woocomerce’ and ‘edit_posts’ and ‘view_admin_dashboard’ capabilities. Such role will not have access to admin dashboard.
Role with admin access – create new role as a copy of ‘administrator’ role or just turn on all capabilities using special “bulk selection” checkbox at the top (to the left from the ‘Quick filter’ label.
Will developer install/change .php files (plugins/theme)? If Yes, be aware that user with such permissions can get full access to the site in spite of any restrictions made via WordPress user interface.
Editor role rename: I re-tested just now with success and can not repeat the described problem. Can you look at the server logs for related PHP/MySQl error messages?
You have to revoke capability from all roles except ‘administrator’ in order it become available for deletion.
If role or capability available for deletion is not really deleted there would be a server side problem. I ask you do the same – check server logs. May be it will help to identify a reason.If it’s possible, you may provide me access to your site (support [at-sign] role-editor.com). I will check what’s going wrong myself then.
If URE shows ‘edit_posts’ for custom post type, then such custom post type really use ‘edit_posts’ and some additional capability may be required to work with this custom post type. I may say more if I have access to your theme.
Hi,
There is ‘edit_published_posts’ capability. User without this capability can not change post after it was published.
Hi,
This page contains a short descriptions for the multisite network operations available with User Role Editor Pro.
Hi,
If “simple booking calendar” is a free software send here its download link.
If it’s a paid product share it via DropBox or similar service with support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I need access to a product in order to know what permissions it requires. I install such products in the local development environment and use for investigation/testing purposes only.Right, with “not selected” blocking model, URE blocks any URLs different from the menu items. Links with different URL arguments list will be blocked and redirected until you apparently add URL arguments to white list as described at the noted “Technical details” section.
Did you restrict this user or role via Admin menu access add-on? It may be a reason of the described redirections.
If Yes, pay attention on the Technical Details part of a documentation page.
