Hi Jess,

Did you solve the described problem with MemberPress automatic redirection to front-end which blocks access to wp-admin for user with custom role and non-member? URE Pro can not solve this via existing functionality, but I could try to help with a piece of code.

[Vladimir]

The issue was reproduced. I investigate it and work on a fix.

Hi Jess,

As MemberPress is not available at wordpress.org, can you share its copy (Google Drive, etc.) for testing/investigation, how allow selected user role ignore wp-admin access restriction from MemberPress?

[Vladimir]

SEOPress plugin manages own capabilities itself via own capabilities manager: SEO->Advanced->Security
It executes related code every page load via WordPress ‘init’ action and rewrites seopress capabilities roles distribution from the scratch every time. So Yes, URE updates user role, but SEOPress rewrites it every time according to its own data.

Try to use SEOPress own user role/capabilities manager or switch off SEOPress capabilities manager removing somehow it from WP init hook:
wp-content/plugins/wp-seopress/src/Actions/CustomCapabilities.php, line #40.

Hi,

“view_admin_dashboard” is right ID for this capability. It doesn’t exist by default. If you don’t see it, create it yourself. Btw., ‘read’ capability is required for access to wp-admin by default by WordPress itself also.

[Vladimir]

URE Pro does not have such (permanent) effect, when you turn OFF the view access add-on or more – deactivate plugin. I suppose that some another settings / plugin is involved.
Can you try to deactivate all plugins make another test and then isolate a problem activating plugins back one by one with new test after every activated plugin?

[Vladimir]

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback.

[Vladimir]

Try this workaround:
1) Go to Users->User Role Editor, select station_team role and grant temporally the ‘edit_theme_options’ capability to this role.
2) Go to admin menu Divi->Role Editor, select ‘station_team’ role and turn ON the “Theme builder” option at the top.
3) Go to Users->User Role Editor, select station_team role and revoke the ‘edit_theme_options’ capability from this role.

[Vladimir]

Thanks. See now. I will test and search the solution.

[Vladimir]

Got it, thanks. What user role to test?

[Vladimir]

Is it applicable for you provide admin access in order I can look at the issue on-line?
If Yes, send credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com

[Vladimir]

Is ‘upload_files’ granted to this role?
Test if ‘edit_posts’, ‘edit_published_posts’ will help, also.
Look for the JavaScript error messages in the browser JS console after trying to upload image via Divi Image module.

wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress plugin has ‘Permissions’ tab at its Settings page. You can set there which user role can: 1) see reports; 2) save settings. You can exlude some user role from tracking.

Universal user capability for access to all functions of this plugin is ‘manage_options’.

[Vladimir]

Hi,

I don’t know the needed capability. If applicable for you to share YR plugin .zip, I can investigate what permissions are needed for it.

[Vladimir]

Thank you for providing the additional information.

1st, I tried to repeat the issue on the test site – without success.
2nd, I looked your video more carefully and found that you have the blocked menu item Astra->Customize, which has exactly the same link customize.php.

URE blocks not directly the menu item. It counts hash for the menu item link, then compares hash calculated for menu item with the list of blocked hashes. Here the hashes are identical for two different menu items. Thus, if one item is blocked, URE automatically blocks another menu item with the same link.
