Hi woodworm,
You doing everything correct. The plugin works next way:
– if there is a restriction for a page for any User Role (e.g. You restricted access to page “Hello World” for User Role Editor) then it’ll automatically restrict access to that page for unlogged user.
Why I did it? Because my logic is next. If registered user does not have access to some pages or posts. He/she any time can logout and grand access to theses pages or posts.
Let me know if I’m thinking wrong or just give an example when this is not true and I’ll delete logic in next release.
Regards,
I think if you just have restrict on or restrict off then your thinking is absolutely right.
My need though is to restrict the access of an editor so they can only edit some pages.
I want my chairman to edit the page with his welcome message on it, but I don’t want him to edit the contact forms for example.
Regards
John
Hi John,
I such way you can play with capabilities and deselect Edit Others Pages. Make a user as an owner of the page you want to give him ability to edit and he’ll be able to edit his own page but others just view.
But this will not work if you want to give ability for more then one user to edit a page. Because there can be only one owner or a page.

Hi Vasyl,
first: great plugin!
But i got the same problem.. i need a restriction for a user, that he can only post in one articel category, and edit only his own articels… is there any option?
plz help.. 🙂
maybe you could help me to set off the “non logged” in user restriction? so everybody which is not logged in can see the pages which are restricted?
maybe a option for next release? “restriction editing” or so? 🙂

Hi 7lives,
Sorry for delay. I was on vacations. Ok. I released on Friday first milestone for release 1.5. Here is a link – http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/advanced-access-manager.1.5.zip.
I split restriction on front-end and back-end. Probably it’ll help.
Regards,
