Allow only Admin & Editor to Create New Polls

Hi Nitin,

Please tell us what version of our plugin you use so we may assist.

Hi,

I am using the latest version 4.9.3, I checked the contributor does not have the rights but yes the author can create new polls.
Is there a way to disable it.

Also if I don’t want the YOP Poll button on the Add New Post, is there a way to do it (since a contributor can add the YOP Poll shortcode there).

I have to admit that YOP Poll is the best Poll plugin that I have installed.

Regards
Nitin

Hey Nitin,

Edit yop-poll/inc/admin.php and in manage_pages function, after this line

global $page, $action; add

if(is_admin()){

and after

default :
     $this->view_all_polls();<code>add</code>}

to close the accolade.

Let us know if you need more help.

Best wishes,

Dear YOP Team,

I’ve just downloaded YOP poll version 5.3.
I’m trying to disable YOP poll menu for all other users(contributors,authors, except for admin).
How can i achieve this?
I’ve looked into yop-poll/inc/admin.php, but couldnt figure out a way. I’ve checked current_user_can function, but don’t know what need to be changed there.

Can you please help?

Many thanks.
Jerry

Hi

Anybody able to help with my query?

Thanks.

Hello

You will need to edit admin.php under inc folder.

After $pollAdminObj = YOP_POLL_Poll_Admin::get_instance();

add the line below

if(current_user_can('manage_options'))

Please note that updating the plugin to a newer version will overwrite these changes.

Best
