Multisite woocommerce status page

?? hey @birblogcu

From what I gather, you’re inquiring about customizing the permissions on a WordPress Multisite installation.

Feel free to check out this Guide to WooCommerce User Roles, Permissions, and Security.

For anything further, I’d recommend inquiring with the support channel of a plugin, for role permission customization, that you might want to utilize, or consider posting a job here.

I trust that points you in the right direction, but if you have more questions, let us know.

We’re happy to help.

Hello, thank you very much for your response.
I tried to do this using the User role editor plugin but I couldn’t block access to the status and extensions pages for the subsite admin/user, for example.

Hi @birblogcu,

In this case, you’ll need to use a custom code or a plugin like Admin Menu Editor or PublishPress Capabilities.

If you are still having problems, we recommend asking development questions on the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. Many of our developers hang out there and will be able to offer insights into your question. You can also seek help from the following:

• A local web developer
• Codeable.io
• WooExperts

I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction to get the job done.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your response. I saw that I could do this by setting capabilities for users with the user role editor, but I could not find all the Woocommerce capabilities for the users. For example, I found the “manage_woocommerce” and “view_woocommerce_reports” capabilities apart from the capabilities that the user role editor adds by default. However, when I enable these capabilities, the user can still access almost all the features of Woocommerce. I want to make this more specific. For example, showing only the “customers” option. However, the “view_woocommerce_reports” ability offers access to the “customers” page along with many other options. Additionally, the status page can still be accessed.

Where can I find all of Woocommerce’s skill names? I checked the repo on Github but it’s really hard to find them there.

Hi @birblogcu,

Unfortunately, WooCommerce does not provide a comprehensive list of all the capabilities associated with it. The reason is that capabilities are linked to WooCommerce core and to various extensions and plugins you might be using. Therefore, it’s a bit complex and varies from site to site.

However, a plugin like User Role Editor might can show all the capabilities.

By the way, if you want to restrict access to the WooCommerce Status page, you might need to add custom code or plugins like Admin Menu Editor or PublishPress Capabilities.

For reference, these particular forums are meant for general support with the core functionality of WooCommerce itself. For development and custom coding questions, it’s best to ask for insight related to those on either the WooCommerce Advanced Facebook group or the WooCommerce Community Slack. Many of our developers hang out there and will be able to offer insights into your question. You can also seek help from the following:

• A local web developer
• Codeable.io
• WooExperts

I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction to get some further insight/information.

Thank you very much for your help @shameemreza
