Hi there,
Thank you for contacting us.
Here you have documentation related to the user role feature.

Hope this helps.
Yes, but I have set it up like that (see image), and he can still edit it, etc. … so have I made a mistake?!

Hi there,
The quickest and easiest way to handle this is by using Elementor’s native Role Manager. From your WordPress Dashboard, simply navigate to Elementor > Role Manager. There, you will see a list of all user roles on your site. Find the Editor role (and any lower roles you wish to restrict), check the box for No access to editor, and save your changes. From that moment on, they will be completely blocked from opening the Elementor editing interface.
However, there is a small catch with this built-in method. While Editors will no longer be able to use Elementor, they can still technically access the standard WordPress page list, click the default edit button, and modify the page title, URL slug, or even delete the page entirely. If you want a foolproof restriction, you can use a free plugin like PublishPress Capabilities or User Role Editor to completely strip the edit_pages and delete_pages capabilities from the Editor role. This will hide the “Pages” section from their dashboard entirely, while still allowing them to manage blog posts.
Finally, it is crucial to verify the actual account types of your “admin group.” If these users currently have the official Administrator role assigned to their accounts, none of these restrictions will work, as WordPress grants Admins absolute control by default. For any of these restrictions to take effect, you must first demote their accounts from Administrator to the Editor role.
Kind regards,
