• Hello, I use Adminimize extensively to tailor the admin back-end for Editors (e.g. deactivate the entire Page group). As soon as I check on the ‘Editor’ box in the “WordPress roles that can administrate the LMS” setting in Namaste, the Page group is also visible (in the WordPress back-end) to all Editors! That is not what I need, or expect to happen; I just want Editors to be able administer Nameste, and keep the Pages group hidden.

    Enabling the role in Namaste just enables the “namaste_manage” capability, nothing else. This cannot be related.

    Hi, thanks for the quick response. I can consistently replicate this problem. Also when i disable the Namaste plugin, the Page group goes back to being hidden. I dont understand what is going on. Do you think the fact that my installation is a multi-site makes any difference?

    you can see the behavior at https://youtu.be/TjoK49tm-EM
    the screen on the left is logged in as an editor role, the right screen is an admin

    I’m sorry, I cannot replicate this here and cannot assist with it. You may try to check with Adminimize authors. ALL we do is to set “namaste_manage” capability to the role. If just calling $role->add_cap() removes all of their settings, this would suggest that plugin is not properly coded.

    Here’s the piece of code that sets “namaste manage” if this could be of any help:

    // manage Namaste! - allow only admin change this
    				if($is_admin) {
    					if(@in_array($key, $_POST['manage_roles'])) {					
    	    				if(!$role->has_cap('namaste_manage')) $role->add_cap('namaste_manage');
    					}
    					else $role->remove_cap('namaste_manage');
    				}	// end if can_manage_options

    Hi, I can easily replicate this problem, and have done so on three different sites, *AND* using two totally different admin roles plugins (“Adminimize” and “Remove Admin Meus by Roles”). Please have another look?

    thanks

    Sorry, there is nothing I can do about this. The problem is in Adminimize.
