There is also a permission called: Edit others posts, and Edit others pages. check to make sure they don’t have that permission
Hi,
I would like to give permissions in the User Role Editor to acess Document Links Widget.
How can I do it?
Thank you
I would like to give permissions to edit the Revolution Slider. Can you help with that permission? Thank you.
Revolution Slider uses ‘manage_options’ capability – the same as WordPress uses for the “Settings” menu.
hi,
i add plug in for brand , the site i run is multi vendors ,
how i limit the vendors to edit/delete this brand plugin ?
I have a problem like this problem but my plugin is Video Manager. I want my users with Editor role to have permission . please ..?
Thank.
Hi,
To @lologoo: if question is still actual, send the download link to the brand plugin do you use.
@nathora: the same question – I need the download link to the Video Manager plugin in order to help you.
Hello. Loving your plugin so far.
I have given admin rights to a particular user. I have allowed the “manage_options” capability.
But I want him to only be able to see 1 of the 4 plugin’s visable on the site. Is it possible to limit which specific plugin he sees (it is the Revolution Slider…I want him to be able to go in and add slides, etc in that plugin…but only that one plugin)?
Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your help.

Hello,
Thanks for good words.
Pro version of User Role Editor may help you. Read this post
https://www.role-editor.com/block-admin-menu-items
If you upgrade to Pro version and don’t renew at the end of Subscription, do you loose functionality options one may have activated when purchasing the Pro?
Pro version includes free version as the core, but should be installed separately. It stays full functional after the end of subscription period. You lose the access to the updates and support only. Plugin will work until its old version is compatible with the new versions of WordPress.
I am using mtouch quiz plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/mtouch-quiz/) and want to give contributor the capability to add quizzes. I have tried checking manage_options and also added other capabilities but still it doesn’t come. Could you please suggest what needs to be done?
mtouch-quiz author made very strange choice for my opinion. He protected all menu items of his plugin with ‘activate_plugins’ capability. It is the same as to decide that the plugin could be used by administrator only.
Hi, I’m trying to make this plugin work with users with limited capabilities but I haven’t had any luck. Any idea?

I think that the problem lies in that the plugin access is through the Setting menu and I won’t give the users a manage_options capability.
@GefoDolia:
You are right.
Moreover, “Skitter slideshow” requires ‘administrator’ role to access to its menu item under the “Settings” menu.
So you need to edit this plugin source code to change this capability in its menu definition, or look on the “Admin Menu Editor” plugin.
