Suggestion to add roles for popup creation/editing

    We manage site for clients who are running various service businesses. Sometimes, for events, they want to post a popup about last minute notice for event. However, most clients are non-tech people and therefore we do not want them to have admin or maybe even editor roles because they may end up causing problems changing things on the site.

    So, it would be very useful to have an option for roles, where we (site admins) can assign permission levels for users (clients who are often “author” role), so that they will have the ability to create or edit any of our existing popups. Mabye even have a setting on each popup, where we can specify which user roles have access to view or edit the popup.

    We had a case the other day where client wanted to post a general notice on the site (via popup) about a last minute change for the event. We tried switching roles for them but did not want to give admin access due to potential for them breaking the site.

    They don’t need access to pages, custom posts types, other plugin settings, etc… just ability to create or edit existing popups so they won’t screw up the site by doing things they are unfamiliar with on WP.

    What do you think?

    Hi @wordmax,

    That’s a great question.

    We don’t have that feature in our plugin because there are already plugins that do that.

    For example, Admin Menu Editor: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/admin-menu-editor/

    We actually use the pro version for our sites. It’s awesome for things like managing what our support team has access to and keeping their dashboards clutter-free.

    Let us know if you need anything else. ??
