Hi team
Great to see that user role capabilities have been introduced. However, there are so many to select from, the level of control is a bit to finite to understand easily. I’ve played around with them for a while, but can’t seem to find the capability setting I need. I am using user role editor – here are my settings: http://awesomescreenshot.com/06b4drqn02
The issue is, I simply want the event admin to be able to do everything except see the settings or the extras.
Thanks

Which settings specifically? The EE General settings? What extras are you referring to exactly?

Hi Garth
I just discovered this doc which is useful https://eventespresso.com/wiki/event-espresso-4-roles-permissions/
Basically, I want to restrict access to “general settings” and Maintenance (listed under Extras in WP menu)

Update: OK I can see from the details in the document I linked to above, that to prohibit access to EE4 General Settings, I was able to disable access to the manage_options core WP capability.
That solves my issue, now all I need is a snippet of code to remove visibility of those defunct menu items from non-admins.
Cheers

I tried these but not working – suggestions?
// remove espresso menu items
function wpse28782_remove_plugin_admin_menu() {
if( !current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ):
remove_menu_page( 'espresso_general_settings' );
remove_menu_page( 'admin.php?page=espresso_messages' ); // alternate method but still doesn't work
endif;
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'wpse28782_remove_plugin_admin_menu', 9999 );
Also tried:
function wpse28782_remove_menu_items() {
if( !current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ):
remove_menu_page( 'edit.php?post_type=espresso_general_settings' );
endif;
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'wpse28782_remove_menu_items' );
