Hi Guys – I’ve got EE4 installed on this site – and I’ve set up some custom profiles for web content editors that are not with full administration rights. How do I get the EE panel to show for them? Cheers |
Hi Sofia, This is something that will change in Event Espresso 4.5 where you’ll be able to use a plugin like Members (developed by Justin Tadlock) to manage custom Event Espresso capabilities. In the meantime, there’s a filter you can add to a custom plugin that will let non-admins access Event Espresso. Here’s a link to an update in a related thread that shows a few options along with some example code: https://eventespresso.com/topic/ee4-paired-down-admin/#post-118343 |

Thanks Josh I added the following code to the theme functions file while did display the Events, Registrations, Transactions, Registration Form, wehn clicking on each of these I was taken to the WP Dashboard view, not to the view of each of the Event Espresso Pages. I then removed the filters from the theme functions and created a plugin but got the same result. Can I check the code is correct or if i am missing something? The code is as follows:

Hi, I tested the above code (though I change the capability to “read”) and saw no issues – screenshot http://take.ms/RWFr4 Do you have any other plugins that affect user roles/capabilities active? |
|
Thanks Dean I changes my code to ‘read’ also but still got the same behaviour i.e. goes to Dashboard rather than the EE Custom Posts. This is a screencast of what happens: http://screencast.com/t/QofvFAYp I disabled plugins and it made no difference. Any more advice? |

Hi, Not currently. I have managed to recreate the issue (it’s very weird, it really did not do it the first time I tested), but as yet have been unable to narrow down why this is occurring. |
Hi Sofia, Did you add the ‘manage_options’ capability to the editor role? That’s an important step that often gets overlooked. |
