No Updraft capabilities

[summerfeeling]

Hello,

I’m sorry if I have to ask you again. ^^
I can’t find any updraft capabilities in my ure. Is it just me? Or do they have to be added manually? (:

Many greetings (:

Hi,

UpDraftPlus Backup/Restore plugin protects its “Settings->UpDraftPlus Backups” menu item with ‘manage_options’ user capability. It uses a lot of other WordPress built-in user capabilities. Look:

$ grep -rn 'current_user_can('
admin.php:370:                  if ('index.php' == $pagenow && current_user_can('update_plugins') && (!file_exists(UPDRAFTPLUS_DIR.'/udaddons') || (defined('UPDRAFTPLUS_FORCE_DASHNOTICE') && UPDRAFTPLUS_FORCE_DASHNOTICE))) {

Thank you for your answer. Forgive me my poor understanding of English: Does that mean in plain language that only the link can be made “invisible” to Updraft?

[Vladimir]

No problem. It would be my not clear English, which is not my native language.

If user can ‘manage_options’ capability, he sees “Settings->UpDraftPlus Backups” menu item, if he can not ‘manage_options’ capability, he do not see this menu item.
Other capabilities are required for the related activity in the most of cases for the quick look.
