List help topics based on custom role

  • I had the same problem and used this workaround (not ideal but good enougth for now) :

    – Create your help files with a hierarchical structure, for example :

    – Toplevel help page : “Users help”
    — Child help page : “User help page 1”
    — Child help page : User help page 2
    — Child help page : User help page 3

    – Toplevel help page : “Admin help”
    — Child help page : “Admin help page 1”
    — Child help page : Admin help page 2
    — Child help page : Admin help page 3

    And so on..

    Now you can hide / show the different blocks by using CSS in the admin. An easy way is to use the Adminimze plugin and create a custom global rule for each top level page ID, then hiding or showing it depending on user roles.

    You can also easily create your own plugin to add role dependent CSS rules to the admin.
