I'm trying to learn php, but am not very good with it yet. I'm trying to delete some post fileds for specific user roles. "Author" to be exact. This is what I have so far. It deletes the field for the "Author" role, but also for admin. I just want to delete the field for "Author's".
function remove_post_excerpt_field() {
if($role=='author')
remove_meta_box('postexcerpt', 'post', 'normal' );
}
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_post_excerpt_field');
