's' ); //return current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'publish' ); } //return current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'edit_post', $remote_post->ID ); return current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'edit_' . $post_type . 's', $remote_post->ID ); } ``` * Original lines are commented. That way it works perfectly. It corrects the capability“ edit_post” to “edit_posts”, and also enables the translation for pages and custom post types. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MultilingualPress] translation meta box not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/) * [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/page/2/#post-6206047) * I just found that there is no documented “publish” capability. If I replace the line: `return current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'publish' );` By: `return current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'publish_post' );` * Then suddenly the administrator can translate! * current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, ‘publish’ ) works for super admins because it returns always true for them: * wp-includes/capabilities.php * ``` 1044 // Multisite super admin has all caps by definition, Unless specifically denied. 1045 if ( is_multisite() && is_super_admin( $this->ID ) ) { 1046 if ( in_array('do_not_allow', $caps) ) 1047 return false; 1048 return true; 1049 } ``` * So I think solution for this bug is to use publish_post and publish_page capabilities. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MultilingualPress] translation meta box not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/) * [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/page/2/#post-6206046) * I just checked: it appears that all the non super-admin administrators cannot display the meta box and do not have the option to do so. As soon as I grant super admin privilege on one particular user, this user suddenly have access to multilingualpress. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MultilingualPress] translation meta box not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/) * [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/#post-6206045) * And I think current_user_can_for_blog returns an empty array, not NULL. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MultilingualPress] translation meta box not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/) * [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/#post-6206044) * The user is administrator on all the sites. * As for my debugging code, you will find it below: * ``` public function register_meta_boxes( $post_type, WP_Post $post ) { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: enter register_meta_boxes\n"; if ( ! in_array( $post_type, $this->allowed_post_types ) ) { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: post is not in allowed_post_types\n"; return; } $current_blog_id = get_current_blog_id(); $site_relations = $this->plugin_data->get( 'site_relations' ); $related_blogs = $site_relations->get_related_sites( $current_blog_id, FALSE ); if ( empty( $related_blogs ) ) { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: empty related_blogs\n"; return; } foreach ( $related_blogs as $blog_id ) { // Do not allow translations if the user is lacking capabilities for the remote blog if ( ! $this->is_translatable_by_user( $post, $blog_id ) ) { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: $blog_id is not translatable\n"; continue; } if ( $current_blog_id !== (int) $blog_id ) { $this->register_metabox_per_language( $blog_id, $post ); echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: register_metabox_per_language $blog_id\n"; } else { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: current_blog_id == $blog_id\n"; } } $assets = $this->plugin_data->get( 'assets' ); $assets->provide( array( 'mlp_admin_js', 'mlp_admin_css' ) ); echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: exit register_meta_boxes\n"; } /** * Check if the current user has the appropriate capabilities to edit the given post. * * @param WP_Post $post * @param int $blog_id * * @return bool */ private function is_translatable_by_user( WP_Post $post, $blog_id ) { $blog_id = absint( $blog_id ); $remote_post = $this->data->get_remote_post( $post, $blog_id ); if ( isset( $remote_post->dummy ) && $remote_post->dummy === TRUE ) { echo "Gab-MultilingualPress: current_user_can_for_blog publish" . current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'publish' ) .

I tried to change the user role to something else then back to administrator, and that does not change. I’ll try to find what’s wrong. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MultilingualPress] translation meta box not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/) * [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-meta-box-not-showing/#post-6206039) * I have a similar problem. For a user, the translation box does not show, neither in Screen options, and below the post tinyMCE. * I tried your plugin mlp-force-metabox-visibility but it still does not show. * My website is multisite and all users are Administrator role with the default Administrator capabilities. The problematic user has been created a few days after the installation of MultilingualPress. Enabling the MULTILINGUALPRESS_DEBUG constant of the plugin does not show anything in the error_log file. I’ve tried to look into the file Mlp_Translation_Metabox in the hope I could find something obvious, but couldn’t. MultilingualPress is latest version, theme is hueman, wordpress is 4.3. * Thanks for any help ! * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[gLastFM] Love the customization option](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/love-the-customization-option/) * Plugin Author [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/love-the-customization-option/#post-7756359) * Thanks! * I take good notes of your suggestions for a next release. However I cannot give any ETA as all my plugin development is mostly frozen due to lack of time. I will update, just don’t know exactly when 🙂 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Counterize] Displays errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/displays-errors/) * Plugin Author [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/displays-errors/#post-3281460) * No I haven’t abandoned it yet, it’s just on hold since I came back to France for a job. I currently have less free time because of that job and my wife needs me more in France because she doesn’t speak French yet. I have big plans for Counterize, including a complete rewrite that would not use too much DB space and a more modern UI with nice looking charts. Same for most of my plugins, I hope that I can get some free time to continue their development. * By the way, SlimStat is a very nice plugin, I already recommended it in another post to someone who was disappointed in Counterize. * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Counterize] Great plugin, one site crashed, second to go](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-one-site-crashed-second-to-go/) * Plugin Author [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-one-site-crashed-second-to-go/#post-7731489) * Hi Sorina, * Sorry for the issues. I currently do not have enough free time to solve all the problems of Counterize, so I suggest you switch to another stats plugin like for example WP SlipStat. * Cheers, * Gabriel * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Counterize] Displays errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/displays-errors/) * Plugin Author [GabSoftware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabsoftware/) * (@gabsoftware) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/displays-errors/#post-3281458) * FNGeditor: Fixed in release 3.1.4. * Camu: Please do not advertise your own plugin in my support forum.
