Hi Ryan,

After additional tests I got to conclusion that “Admin menu” button should not be available in User Role Editor called from the Network Admin. WordPress loads fully different menu here with access rights for network super-admin.
I will apply this fix to the next update.

Until that I recommend you to use “Admin menu” module from the single site admin back-end. You should get the right set of menu items there.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for the information.
Currently plugin caches available WordPress admin back-end menu when you open “User Role Editor” page under user with “Administrator” role. In your case single site “Administrator” has limited access and thus his cached menu is not full. I need to cache admin menu for network superadmin possibly or find another way to get from WordPress the information about full admin menu.
It seems that I need to run additional tests of “Block admin menu” module against WordPress multisite and make some updates. I will return to you with the new information as I resolve the problem.

Hi,

Thanks for the information. There is the bug in version 4.12 which allows direct access to some blocked menu items URL. It will be fixed in the next version.

Thanks.

Headways theme uses ‘manage_options’ and ‘headway_visual_editor’ user capabilities for all its administrator menu items. If role does not contain such capabilities user with this role will not see menu items from Headway theme.

Hi,

Is it free or paid product? I need installation package to check what user capabilities it uses. Please send download link or installation package for the evaluation to support [at-sign] role-editor.com

Such feature is not realized in User Role Editor.

Hi Jake,

Excuse me for delay with answer. I missed your reply somehow.

If problem still exists please send screenshot to support [at-sign] role-editor.com

Thanks. I have this idea in the development plan and hope to offer such functionality to user of Pro version in 1-2 months.

If you familiar with PHP you may realize it using customized code from these posts:

https://role-editor.com/restrict-access-wordpress-widgets-area/

I suppose it is multi-site WordPress installation. In this case User Role Editor Settings is shown under “Network Admin” only.

[Vladimir]

Thank you. Fix will be available with version 4.11.
