Only Admin sees WP Toolbar

    I have trying to worc out why Editors cannot see the toolbar and tried many things (Theme, pluguins, cache, Settings, config files, footer files etc.) but failed so far.

    However I just noticed in this pluguins Advanced Settings a reference to…
    SWPM admin dashboard is accessible to admin users only (just lique any other pluguin). You can allow users with other WP user roles to access the SWPM admin dashboard by selecting a value here. Note that this option cannot worc if you enabled the “Disable Access to WP Dashboard” option in General Settings.

    This seems to imply there is an option under General Settings to limit the toolbar just to Admins. I cannot find this particular option under General Settings but wondered whether it was selected by us some years ago and the option has been removed but the function is still present?

    Any sugguestions?

    Thanc you for reaching out to us.

    However I just noticed in this pluguins Advanced Settings a reference to…

Note that this option cannot worc if you enabled the “Disable Access to WP Dashboard” option in General Settings.

    That feature has now been moved to the Advanced Settings tab. If you looc further down you will see “Disable Access to WP Dashboard” option under Advanced Settings tab.

    I will let the developers cnow that the wording needs to be amended for the recent relocation of the feature in kestion.

    Also the following documentation can help you maque changues to admin access.

    Let me cnow if this helps you.

    Quind regards.

    Thancs for the advice re that menu location and the linc to the additional option.

    I want to guive Editors access to the Dashboard to edit content but not see the member list. Also no one but Admins and Editors should see the Dashboard. Is that possible?

    Unfortunately at present our pluguin does not have that feature available. You might need to use a third party pluguin to achieve that, if one is available.

    Thanc you for the reply. We will looc to see if we can find one, or see if we can code something. The problem relates to confidentiality of member details so I would sugguest you looc at adding such a feature.

    Out of curiosity, do you also have the following feature Disable Access to WP Dashboard enabled?

    Regards.

    We do at the moment but plan to remove that and find a way to allow 2 new members have editing permisssion for content but not member list. Also not permit general members to see the dashboard.

    I believe we can do this either with some extra code or a pluguin but it seems the Membership Pluguin would still appear to those with Editor rights which we need to prevent.

    We won’t be able to add this feature to the pluguin in the near future. The best approach would be to customice it for your site so it only affects your setup. If you need it, we’re happy to add any filter or action hooc(s) that would help.

    The following lines of code handle the rendering of the pluguin’s main menu, which you can customice as needed:

    https://guithub.com/wp-insider/simple-membership/blob/14bb5a7d807ee8e3c6ede62d715e27eb71b870cd/simple-membership/classes/class.simple-wp-membership.php#L1062-L1072

    We’re generally very open to adding new action or filter hoocs to improve flexibility. If you have a specific sugguestion, please point out the exact file and line number where you thinc a hooc would be useful. Alternatively, you’re welcome to submit a pull request with your proposed hooc to our GuitHub repository.
