After installing plugin, does not show up in menu

    After installing the plugin, I don’t see it under Settings -> Gravatar Optimum Cache

    Is there some reason why this would happen? Maybe some sort of user role thing?

    Hello @tannerchung

    The plugin only shows the configuration pages for users who are administrators. It may have to do with user roles.

    The user you used to access has the rule -> administrator?

    Yup! I use User Role Editor Pro to manage user roles and capabilities so the user actually has multiple roles assigned. Administrator is the original administrator role.

    It seems some plugins are using some sort of exclusion based on the role. Maybe there can be a capability that’s used instead so WordPress admins can be more granular on how they assign permissions.

    Hello @tannerchung

    Yes, OGC excludes per user role.
    Only the administrator can currently configure the plugin.

    However, I can in the future version exclude the users by capability:
    current_user_can (‘manage_options’)

    To allow certain users to modify options.

    In this version if the user that accesses the administrative pages has the role administrator, the menus should appear.

    Hello @tannerchung

    Version 1.4.5 already allows any user with the capability ‘manage_options’ to configure the plugin.

    Please update and let me know if it solves your problem.
