I suppose the issue is related to the “Admin menu” restrictions made to this custom role. This part of the “Admin menu access” documentation page may help.

[Vladimir]

If ‘General’ is a kind of WordPress categories/taxonomies supported by “Plants” custom post type, “< a href="https://www.role-editor.com/allow-user-edit-selected-posts/">Users access restriction for editing selected posts and pages only by category/taxonomy ID list” add-on should help you.

You need to activate this add-on at “Settings->User Role Editor->Additional Modules” tab. Open every editor user profile and input there the list of ‘Genera’ IDs to the edit restrictions section:

[Vladimir]

Custom post type definition includes a capability type parameter. If capability type is omitted, WordPress uses a default value ‘post’, the same as for the WP built-in post type ‘posts’. All such custom post types are protected by the same user capabilities set as WordPress uses for the ‘Posts’: edit_posts, delete_posts, etc.

If you use some plugin to define custom post type you can input a unique capability type there.

User Role Editor Pro has an option which forces all custom post type to use own capabilities set (Settings->User Role Editor->Additional Modules). Related capabilities are added to the administrator role automatically, but should be granted to other roles manually.

Hi Bill,

You can add an option “Prohibit Admin” for the roles as at this article and turn it ON for the selected role. User will be redirected to front-end automatically after try to access wp-admin.

Thanks for the additional information. OK. There was misunderstanding from my side here.
I will develop this feature for post/page edit restrictions.

‘Page attributes’ section at the page editor should be unavailable for restrictions users, right? Other way user may change page template for a page and make it unavailable for him.

Hi Urs,

This feature is not realized yet.

[Vladimir]

Thank you for the help with testing v. 4.44.b1. It’s available from today as a production v. 4.44.

[Vladimir]

Can you please test version 4.44.b1? It’s available after login as the development version from the same download page.

[Vladimir]

Role should have required capabilities in order you can see the related menu items in “Admin menu” – at least the ‘edit_posts’.

[Vladimir]

Thank you for the confirmation. I will work on solution.

Hi,

Thanks for this report.
Is it a multisite WordPress installation?
Is bbPress network activated or just for some single sites of the network?

[Vladimir]

If access to this GF dashboard widget is not critical for this role, try to block it with “Widgets access add-on“. May be it will help.

[Vladimir]

Thanks for the information. Generally, URE makes nothing critical. It modifies GF dashboard widget SQL query adding to it WHERE conditions like “AND id IN (1, 2, 3)” to limit the list of forms available at this widget. This modification is not query consumable. I may just suppose that you may have some active add-ons for Gravity Forms, which may lead to the conflict.

I may just repeat my question:
Can you provide me a copy of site database and files (without wp-content/uploads) via DropBox or similar? Use email address support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I will monitor using my debug environment, what does really happen after user login with your site copy.

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Does 502 error take place for a user with access restrictions to Gravity Forms realized with URE Pro? Show me the screenshot of URE GF restrictions section from this user profile.

[Vladimir]

Try version 4.42 (published today).
Page templates list is available as blocking criteria for a role just below the categories.
