Changing the way user levels work…

  • Is there a way that I can change it so that users of *the same* user level, instead of only being able to edit posts of users below them, can also edit *each other’s* posts. Specifically, I’d like all users of level 5 to be able to edit posts by users of level 5 downwards.

    Cheers,
    Turnip

  • There are earlier versions of the post-levels plugin, yes, but they don’t work they I want them to with the version of WP (1.5) that I am currently running.

    I was trying to see if I could find a fix for the current version of the post-levels plugin (V0.2.1) that I’m using until I can upgrade my WP. My problem with upgrading my WP is that I use a lot of plugins and have made quite a bit of modifications to certain files, but I can’t remember which ones I actually made the modifications to. The actual upgrading of WP never takes long, it’s the tweaking to get it all back the way I want it, that takes the most time.

    I suppose I will just have to bite the bullet and upgrade although I don’t want to right now. I’m just being stubborn. There has to be a way to do what I want to do with the version of the post levels plugin that I’m using right now, which is only show my private entries to registered users with a level of 1 or higher, but restrict their ability to post on my blog or edit anything within my blog admin interface.

    Fil, the creator of this plugin, posted some code tweaks if anyone is interested in using the Post Levels plugin V0.2.1 with WP 1.5. They are as follows:

    * wp-admin/menu.php (change the second parameter for all the menus to 10)
    * wp-admin/profile.php (check for user_level = 10 before showing a user’s level)
    * wp-admin/user-edit.php (change it so only user_level = 10 can edit [look for if ($edituser->user_level >= $user_level)]

    Hth someoneone else!
