    Hi,
    I have Admin Columns Pro installed on a website where I also run the User Role Editor Pro.
    Unfortunately (as admin) the access is denied to the settings page of Admin Columns Pro. The message says that I do not have sufficient rights. Deactivation did not help.
    Please help me regain access.

    Hi Martin,

    Check if ALL existing capabilities are granted to the ‘administrator’ role.

    I need access to a copy of Admin Columns Pro for testing in order to help you. Share it with support [at-sign] role-editor.com (via DropBox or similar), if it’s applicable for you.

    Hi Martin,

    Menu item “Settings->Admin Columns” is protected by “manage_admin_columns” capability. Check if it was granted to the administrator role. If it does not exist for some reason, re-create it manually.

    Hi Vladimir, thank you for pointing that out. Issue is indeed resolved now.
