No one else has had any problems with this?
Are you using the Role Manager plugin? If not, you may want to look into it, though I am not sure that would solve the issue.
I don’t use the pre-assigned roles in WP, instead, I use the Role Manager plugin for the multi-user sites I own and those I oversee.
If you’re using the built-in roles, if you checkout the WordPress documentation in Codex (Roles and Capabilities), it looks like someone in the role of “editor” would not be allowed to touch your posts. I could be wrong, but then again, as I said, I don’t use the pre-built roles. I create specific roles for those acting as editors, and have various editor positions, all based on newsroom editing roles.
Check out the plugin at http://sourceforge.net/projects/role-manager
Normally, nobody can edit anything if it was written by a user higher in the hierarchy.
That means no lower level user can (and should be) able to edit anything written/set by an admin…
But she’s been able to edit my posts since I brought her onto the blog. I didn’t even change anything, except to upgrade the WP version.
Got it fixed. Installed the Rolls and Capabilities plugin, and after a few hours of messing with things, realized my editor didn’t have “Edit Others Php” checked under her profile, since I have the PHP-Exec plugin. Thanks for the plugin.
