 * The only option now is to adjust the capabilities that are required for users
   to access the store locator plugin screen through a filter.
 * If you add this to your functions.php, then users who can ‘edit_posts’ are allowed
   to add/edit stores. And editors are allowed to ‘edit_posts’ so they should have
   access, see [http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Editor](http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Editor)
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'wpsl_capability', 'my_custom_capabilities' );
   
       function my_custom_capabilities() {
           return 'edit_posts';
       }
       ```

 * I’ve been trying to implement this workaround but haven’t been successful so 
   far, I’m wondering with all of the updates that have been rolled out since this
   topic was initially posted whether this is no longer a solution?
 * I’m running WP 4.1.1 with Vantage Premium Theme. I’ve tried editing the functions.
   php file via FTP and via the Admin panel editor resulting in no success.

 * [@kato249](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kato249/) the 2.0 version has 
   an ‘store editor’ role that you can assign to users.
 * If you want to try the 2.0 beta just email me at info at tijmensmit.com. The 
   only open issue with the 2.0 version that I’m aware of is WPML related.
