I’m having the same exact issue, and I see that this plugin hasn’t been updated since 8/2014. Is it no longer supported/updated?
I have WordPress v4.3.1, and I did a little debugging:
\wp-admin\edit.php
Line 33
if ( ! current_user_can( $post_type_object->cap->edit_posts ) )
\wp-includes\capabilities.php
Line 810
get_role_caps()
I found that deactivating the plugin and activating it, added some “deny” capabilities to a lot of roles. 12 deny capabilities to be exact. These deny don’t appear in the administrator though, but since I have more than one role, this affects me since the “deny” takes precedence. In order to fix it, you can go to your roles and uncheck deny on these capabilities:
'edit_documents',
'edit_others_documents',
'edit_private_documents',
'edit_published_documents',
'read_documents',
'read_document_revisions',
'read_private_documents',
'delete_documents',
'delete_others_documents',
'delete_private_documents',
'delete_published_documents',
'publish_documents',
'override_document_lock'
I wrote some code as well if anybody needs it:
$manager = wp_roles();
$all_roles = $manager->roles;
// Capabilities to be removed from roles
// Copied from \wp-includes\capabilities.php - Line 1472: add_caps()
$documents_caps = array(
'edit_documents',
'edit_others_documents',
'edit_private_documents',
'edit_published_documents',
'read_documents',
'read_document_revisions', 'read_private_documents',
'delete_documents',
'delete_others_documents',
'delete_private_documents',
'delete_published_documents',
'publish_documents',
'override_document_lock'
);
// Remove the $documents_caps from all roles if it's in the array of capabilites and set to false (which means deny)
foreach ( $all_roles as $name=>$role) {
foreach ( $documents_caps as $doc_cap ) {
if ( $role['capabilities'][$doc_cap] == false ) {
$manager->remove_cap( $name, $doc_cap );
}
}
}
no need to update code, just fix capabilites of admin account using a capabilities editor plugin, it’s juste missing *document(s).
