# contributors cannot sell posts

 * I have a page where contributors can upload attachments to their posts and submit
   them for review. Admin will check the content and make part of the content, mainly
   the attachment part, for sale. So the contributor himself does not need to see
   the sell the option to Enable Sale of This post on the side, when posting his
   post for review.
 * Any idea of how I can resolve this? If I switch off Sell Content I will not be
   able to sell content with shortcode either. Any ideas?
 * Thanks

 * Hey.
 * Yes the myCRED Sell This metabox was added so that anyone who can edit posts (
   or relevant post type) can see the meta box.
 * You can always remove the meta box with the [remove_meta_box](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/remove_meta_box)
   function:
 *     ```
       add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'mycred_remove_sell_this_metabox', 15 );
       function mycred_remove_sell_this_metabox() {
       	// If not editor (or admin), remove metabox
       	if ( ! current_user_can( 'delete_others_posts' ) )
       		remove_meta_box( 'mycred_sell_content', 'post', 'side' );
       }
       ```
   
 * _The above code goes into your themes functions.php file and you would need to
   change the post type if it is not “posts” that you are selling._
