I suppose you try to revoke capability from administrator role. URE does not allow this to prevent accident lose of access to the site management.

Workaround – create a full copy of administrator role, revoke unneeded capabilities from it. Grant it to your other admins.

‘profile’ page itself or shortcode inside it know nothing about whose profile will be shown via this page. So I don’t imagine how URE can help you with realizing needed model of view permissions for such dynamic content.

[Vladimir]

‘user_role_editor’ shortcode has ‘users’ attribute which allows to show content for selected user(s). But it’s static.
If you would build shortcode dynamically to insert current user ID for current user with ‘volunteer’ or ‘volunteer coordinator’ roles it may work. But in this case you do not need shortcode from URE and can show/hide page content itself I suppose.

Yes, he will be able to delete users without this capability.

‘ure_manage_options’ is not related to user deletion at all.
Any user with list_users, ‘delete_users’ can delete user available to him at the Users list page.

[Vladimir]

If you revoke ‘ure_manage_options’ capability for user, he will stop be superadmin for URE. Thus it will not see other users with ‘administrator’ role.
It’s default security rule applied by URE for not superadmins.

Be aware that if you grant to user access to Users->User Role Editor, such user can add ‘ure_manage_options’ back at any time.

[Vladimir]

If you revoke ‘ure_manage_options’ capability for user, he will lose access to Settings->User Role Editor page and stop be superadmin for URE.

Workaround scenario:
If you do not use plugins which directly require ‘administrator’ role instead of some user capability, you may create a copy of ‘administrator’ role for additional administrators and block this role (and users with this role) from themselves via “Other roles access” add-on.
Then do not use user with ID=1 in a daily work.

It may be an issue of this special setup. I may investigate it. If that’s applicable send admin login credentials to support [at-sign] role-editor.com
Details about what page you try to restrict will be useful also.

Hi Bjorn,

I published free version 4.51 of URE today. If I will not receive any critical responses for it, I plan to publish Pro version 4.51 tomorrow morning.

Does CPT has fully own taxonomy, instead of posts categories for example?

Hi Chris,

You missed link to screenshot.

When site uses User Role Editor, Gravity Forms requires apparently assign to a role its capabilities – look Custom Capabilities->Gravity Forms group:
gravityforms_create_form
gravityforms_delete_entries
gravityforms_delete_forms
gravityforms_edit_entries
gravityforms_edit_entry_notes
gravityforms_edit_forms
gravityforms_edit_settings
gravityforms_export_entries
gravityforms_preview_forms
gravityforms_system_status
gravityforms_uninstall
gravityforms_view_addons
gravityforms_view_entries
gravityforms_view_entry_notes
gravityforms_view_settings
gravityforms_view_updates

Did you granted them to a role?

[Vladimir]

I suppose that you use “Content view restrictions” add-on to manage product view.

Product is excluded from all listings just in case of 404 action selection.

You need to go through all wholesale products, open every for editing and set Content view restrictions criteria:
– role: Wholesale;
– Access error action: 404 HTTP error.
In this case wholesale products will not be listed for not logged in users.

I need access to wp-enevnt-organiser plugin copy to isolate a reason of the issue. If you can share it with me (support [at-sign] role-editor.com), show also a screenshot with marker what field(s) is available without URE and disappear after URE activation.

P.S. I install software received from client at the local development environment and use for testing/investigation purpose only.

[Vladimir]

It depends from where you wish to see this option:
If in user profile – to a role granted to that user or directly to that user;
if for a role – then grant this capability for that role.

[Vladimir]

Correct, FB Photo Fetcher plugin protects its menu item under the “Settings” menu with ‘administrator’ role hardcoded:
_admin_menu.php:10:

add_options_page("$fpf_name Options", 'FB Photo Fetcher' . (defined('FPF_ADDON')?"+":""), 'administrator', "fb-photo-fetcher", 'fpf_admin_page');

[Vladimir]

There are no known issues with mentioned plugins.
Let’s look on the problems step by step.
Describe me one of the examples (what do you wish to achieve) which does not work for you and show screenshots of the settings you made for that.
If you can provide admin access to your site. It will be helpful.
