Not able to allow page listing

    I’ve used ‘Capabilities’ plugin to create roles and ‘Permission’ to limit their edition to certain pages/subpages (we are using Elementor). The thing is, I still need them to see those pages in the section ‘Pages’ of the admin, but haven’t been able to achieve that.
    I’ve tried, without success:

    • Permissions > Settings > Editing > List other user’s uneditable posts
    • Permissions > Roles > Set Specific Permission > And add all pages as ‘Read’
    • From the uneditable pages, set them as readable for those roles
    • Capabilities > Capabilities > Since I don’t see a ‘listing’ tab, I’ve added capabilities (list_others_pages, list_private_posts, etc.) in ‘Add a New Capability’

    Could you please advice on how to get this to work?

    Thanks

    Hi @mmatillaplus54

    Thanks for using our plugin.

    If you limit the role to see edit specific pages, then they will only see that specific pages on the Pages menu. It will not be possible for a role could see other pages while only able to edit specific pages.

    Thanks,

    @mmatillaplus54 @rizaardiyanto We found that the Capabilities plugin is displaying the Listing tab only if Permissions Pro is installed. The next Capabilities release will adjust that to support Permissions free.

    Other notes on this functionality:

    • Enabling the “List other user’s uneditable posts” setting will implicitly assign the required capabilities, but only for post types where the user already has the basic edit capability. So if the user’s role does not have “edit_pages”, you would need to manually assign “list_pages”, “list_others_pages”, etc.
    • Note that published pages also require a “list_published_pages” capability. This is evident when the “Listing” tab is available on the Capabilities screen.
