No problem. Thanks for the feedback.

Does such user has editing access to the Gravity Forms?

[Vladimir]

Hi,

It’s possible to configure for selected user only. Gravity Forms access add-on does not support restrictions for roles currently.

TU plugin uses 1 instead of a real user capability when adds its menu item to the “Settings” menu (twitter_ultimate.php:15):

add_options_page ( "Twitter Ultimate", "Twitter Ultimate", 1, "twitterultimate", "twitterultimate_settings" );

I can just suppose that this plugin is quite older and uses the deprecated user level 1.

So this menu item is available to any user with the deprecated ‘level_1’ capability.

Solution 1st: edit ‘twitter_ultimate.php’ file and replace 1 with ‘manage_options’ or other user capability on your choice.

Another solution – revoke level_1 deprecated capability from a role for which you wish to prohibit access to this menu item. User with such role can disappear from the list of authors at the post editor page though (more information).

Hi Mark,

Do you try to hide its menu item with “Admin menu access” add-on?

I need access to the Twitter Ultimate copy in order to test it. You can share its .zip via DropBox or GoogleDrive with support [at-sign] role-editor.com
I install such products locally and use for the testing/investigation purpose only.

Are there other user-role-editor-ru_Ru translation files at the wp-content/languages/plugins before you moved there files from User Role Editor Pro /lang folder?

Free version of User Role Editor does not include translation files into its installation package. WordPress downloads them from the centralized resource:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/user-role-editor
and places exactly to wp-content/languages/plugins folder.
Both free and Pro version uses the same text domain. So WordPress can use translation files from a free version instead of those included into the Pro version folder.

Will valid translation be shown if you remove URE translation files from wp-content/languages/plugins folder?

Hi,

Open ‘Users->User Role Editor’ page and check a browser JavaScript console for the error messages. If you will find any look from what folder a related file was loaded – you can get information what plugin causes a conflict.

You granted access to ‘redirect’ custom post type but not to ‘Tools->Redirection’ menu.
Bad news: Redirection plugin protect this menu item with ‘administrator’ role by default.
Good news: It allows to developer to change this default value to your own using custom filter, like this:

add_filter('redirection_role', 'change_redirection_permissions', 10, 1 );
function change_redirection_permissions($cap) {

    $cap = 'manage_options';
    
    return $cap;
}

Then any role with ‘manage_options’ capability will can access ‘Tools->Redirection’ menu item. You can install this code as a part of your active theme functions.php file or as a separate .php file in a wp-content/mu-plugins folder – read more about Must Use plugins.

Hi,

This custom filter ure_restrict_edit_post_type may help. Return FALSE from it for the ‘event’ CPT to not restrict events editing.

[Vladimir]

Hi,

You can change this default behavior via custom filter: ure_auto_access_child_pages.

Temporally switch off “Activate wp-admin pages pemissions viewer” checkbox at “Settings->User Role Editor->Additional Modules” tab.

It seems that this add-on works not for all sites setup. I need to make this code more universal.

[Vladimir]

Thanks for letting me know. I will include this to my development plans.

[Vladimir]

Do you use any caching plugin? Try to clear its and browser cache – just in case in would help.
Did you try to deactivate temporary all plugins except URE?

[Vladimir]

Good! Thanks for letting me know.

One recommendation – It’s the best solution to restrict a role via user capabilities 1st. So in order to not block menu items protected by ‘edit_pages’, ‘manage_categories’, ‘edit_staff_members’, etc. revoke those unneeded user capabilities from your custom role. And then block what you don’t need with “Admin menu”.

[Vladimir]

Editor role WordPress default state:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Editor

Does this link work for user if you deactivate “Admin menu access” add-on in URE settings?
If ‘Yes’ then problem is not related to the user capabilities included into a role. It’s related to “Admin menu access” add-on settings for this role. So give me more details then in order I can proceed.
