Thanks for sharing this information.

Hi,

1) role A: Edit restrictions add-on has “Own data only” option. It hides posts created by other authors from the current user at wp-admin posts list page.

2) role B: There is no criterion for edit restrictions by the role of authors. It’s possible to use tags or categories though. This post may give a starting point.

Strange. Thanks again. I will make more testing with different ISPs.

Thank you for the help with testing CF.
I tested again via other provider and got the same error message. Clicked “Send” button again (as it offered) and message was send. Can you make the same?

Capabilities assigned to a user via role(s) may be revoked from a user via role(s) only. That’s why such checkboxes are shown in grey color, disabled.

You can create another role and grant it to a user instead of previous one. You can just revoke role from a user and grant him needed capabilities directly after that.

Thanks for the message about role-editor.com contact form.
I re-tested it successfully. I hope it was a temporal networking issue in your case as CF uses Google Recaptcha v.3 service for protection.

I restored Pro Personal membership for your account.

There are no any automatic recurring payments applied to role-editor.com subscribers. So you don’t need to cancel subscription in advance.
role-editor.com will send automatic notification in a week before subscription expiration date and notify you about subscription expiration. That’s it.

WordPress allows to modify a list of available menus via ‘wp_get_nav_menus’ filter.
I will add UI for this feature to URE Pro at the begin of 2019.

Problem was discussed and resolved by email.

Hi Ron,

Clarify,
– What options is not shown at page edit page for your suddenly restricted account (link to screenshot is appreciated)?
– To what plugin those options belong?

[Vladimir]

It’s possible with ‘ure_supress_administrators_protection’ filter (return true for it) to make users with ‘administrator’ role visible to user who can edit users, but such user will can edit “admin users” then. URE does not offer ‘read-only’ mode for users page.
So after you switched off a default URE protection for users with ‘administrator’ role you have to:
1) use ‘map_meta_cap’ filter to block editing users with ‘administrator’ role;
2) exclude ‘administrator’ role from WordPress dropdown lists in order to prevent creation of new administrators by yor Editors: ‘editable_roles’ filter.

Hi,

Yes, it’s possible to limit user or role to publish just into selected category. Use Edit access restrictions add-on for this purpose.

[Vladimir]

Try to install this code at the stage copy of your site as a Must Use plugin.

It fires the same code as URE Pro does on user “Update Network” button and replicates current user and its permissions from the main site to all other sites of the network on the ‘woocommerce_checkout_update_user_meta’ action, that is when a user makes successful checkout for his purchase.

Let me know, how it works at your side. Again, try it at the test copy, do not use it at production site until you are sure that it works as expected.

[Vladimir]

Sorry for a delay. I will try to work on this task this weekend.

[Vladimir]

It’s possible to realize similar access model with ‘Edit restrictions‘ add-on. But will need some special efforts with terms structure and restrictions criteria. Read this article to look how you can use categories to separate edit access between different authors and editors.
