[Plugin: AddThis] Cheating, uh error

    Hi, I have an Editor role that I have modified.

    For some reason the addthis panel in their dashboard says Cheating, uh instead of displaying stats even though I have permitted this in their dashboard.

    Google analytics and any other plugin dashboard widgets that I have allowed for them work/display fine.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  • The dashboard widget requires the manage_options capability. In our next version I’ll make sure that it doesn’t show up unless the user has that capability which will prevent this error from being displayed. I’m also adding in a filter that will allow this to be override if a site admin wishes to apply a different rule.

    Thanks, that is excellent to hear, coz I love addthis and I like being able to use it for clients, but in some cases I really have to batten down the hatches on the backend in regards to what I allow them access to but I do want them to be able to see their stats even if i dont allow them to touch any options etc iykwim lol

    Enjoy your day

    2.4.0 gives you finer control over who can see the dashboard stats module. https://github.com/clearspring/AddThis-WordPress-plugin-cookbook/blob/master/dashboard-stats-for-all.php is an example plugin that will display it for all users. You can do your own callback instead of __return_true() if you want to have finer grain control.
