Restrict access to plugin to a specific user

    Is it possible to restrict the access to the “View Admin As” plugin to one specific admin user (me)? There are other Admin users that should not have access to the plugin.

    I can not remove the “View Admin As” capability from the “Admin” role because that would remove it for me as well and I would prefer not having to create a new role for me just for that purpose.

    Is it possible by putting some code into the functions.php or into the /mu-plugin/ folder?

    Thank you!

    Hi @stefanowitz

    As I am on holidays now this suggestion is untested:
    You could try to remove the cap from the admin role and make your own user a superior admin.
    If this doesn’t work I’ll have to take a loop when I’m back.

    Alternatively you can clone the admin role and grant this role to the other users.

    Cheers, Jory
