Post Restriction not working unless refresh browser on Pages

[edering]

Hi Vladimir. While working with Oasis Workflow on https://iu13org.kinsta.cloud/, we noticed an issue with the Restrictions. If you switch to the user called “icomm”, you will see the issue. It is a Program Editor, and is set to be able to see only one Page (a page called Demo). using Post ID Restrictions. When I got to Pages, it shows all Pages. If I refresh my browser, it works and I only see Demo. Oasis Workflow is seeing this too. They removed their plugin, but it still does not work so it does not seem to be a conflict with them. The host said there is no caching while logged in. We still have your Admin account setup. Can you help please?

Hi Erik,

I reproduced the described issue. I will try to find a reason.

It seems I fixed the issue. Make another test and share the result.

The reason was at the filtering code from functions.php:

$ag = get_field('analytics_group_name','user_' . $current_user->ID);
if ( !isset( $ag ) ) {
     return '';
}

get_field() may return ”, and !isset() check was wrong in the such case. I replaced !isset() with empty():

if ( empty( $ag ) ) {
    return '';
}

and ‘Pages’ started to open with the single page only.

Thanks, that worked!
