Hey Bud,
This step by step should help.
1. Go to the Admnimize settings page in Settings -> Adminimize
2. Scroll down to the “Write options – Post” pane. This is the 7th pane when I look at it
Mini Menu -> About the Plugin -> Backend Options -> Global options -> Dashboard option -> Menu Options -> Write options – Post
3. Then find the 23rd item down in the “Write options – Post” pane called Excerpt (#postexcerpt, #postexcerptdiv, th.column-postexcerpt, td.postexcerpt)
Then tick the boxes.
I want to do the same, i have tried the above and no joy still there for authors even though its deactivated
you can hide the box in the yoast SEO setting page, but it will hid it for everyone! not just a roll.
so i have found.
Hey guys,
could you clarify on this? I have the same problem. I would like to hide metaboxes for authors, so that it would be visible only to Administrator of the website.
^ I would also like to work out how to do this!
Tried nicksopers’s suggestion but sadly it didn’t work.
Anyone else?!
If you will hide the completly Meta Box from Yoast SEO plugin, add the follow strings to Adminimize.
1. Settings of Adminimize
2. Part of “Write options – Post”
3. Add follow values to the custom options
left textarea: wpseo yoast meta box
right textarea: #wpseo_meta
4. update options
5. also got to “Write options – Post”
6. Active checkbox on the role, there you will hide this meta box
7. Update options
Ready.
It is also possible, that you hide parts of this meta box, find the class or id via Firebug or Webinspector in Chrome. Add this selector, like in css, to the custom options and save.
Success! Thank you so much Frank.
Hi there! I tried to do the same with All in One SEO Pack but I couldn’t find how to hide the meta box 🙁
Any help is welcome, thanks! 🙂
