Disable Expiration Meta-Box from Authors

  • Hello,

    I have this plugin working with wordpress 4.0 absolutely perfectly… (Thank You)…

    I’m now in a situation where I need to disable the expiration meta-box for Authors of a post, but not the admins… (So they can not change the expiry date).

    Is this something anybody could potentially help with?

    Thank you!

    For anybody else interested in a solution, I Managed to do it by adding this code to the theme’s functions.php file and it worked a treat:

    if (is_admin()) :
function my_remove_meta_boxes() {
 if( !current_user_can('manage_options') ) {
  remove_meta_box('expirationdatediv', 'post', 'normal');
 }
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'my_remove_meta_boxes' );
endif;
