Admin not able to view all content

    Hello,
    I searched through the support forum but did not see anything like this. I have installed the free version, I plan on purchasing but had one question.

    Right now I restricted content on a page like so:

    ‘[restricted field_name=”Company” field_value=”westnetworks”] content [/restricted]’

    and that seems to work great for any user that has westnetworks as there company… the problem comes when I try to view the page as the site admin (not created with FEUP, but when we set the site up). is there a way to allow all admins to view any page regardless of restrictions with the paid version? or add attributes to the admin so they fit the criteria?

    thank you so much for your time!

    Hi Matthew,

    There is no option to do what you mentioned. The restrictions are set up and based on logged in and user level status as it pertains to the plugin, not the WordPress user level.

    Thanks for the response. So even if I purchase the module and use the Level status (“minimum_level” and “maximum_level”), the site admin still could not view the content on the front end?

    That is correct, the WordPress site admin cannot, by default, view restricted content. However, when setting up the plugin, there is an option to import existing WordPress users. So, you could just import the WordPress admin user account and, within our plugin, assign to it the user level with the highest power.

    Thank you! I will give that a try once I purchase it. I did import them but with the free version I cant use Levels, so I wasn’t sure if that would work or not. Thanks again for your time!
