Hi Renee

Thank you for your reply.

RE. I can confirm that Site Kit has appropriately placed the Adsense snippet on the site, so the next step would be with Adsense directly.

It is an impossible process to reach a human. Thus my reach out on a forum board for ideas.

Seems like Google AdSense doesn’t want to talk to unhappy applicants. Here is what the ‘1-8—Live-person’ page sent me after reaching out via: https://support.google.com/adsense/gethelp

? To contact a live person in Google Adsense via e-mail or live chat you will need a working account with Adsense and also a certain revenue per month. Click help on top right and then under “Contact us” select e-mail option. If this option is not visible it means your account is not eligible for e-mail or live chat support.

As you’d expect …. On my page, top right, there is no “Help” !

It’s a catch 22 process.

You can find info on the client site and the theme they use here: https://www.develop4u.com/portfolio-items/john-wallick-jewelers/.

All software is up to date.

Here’s a screenshot of the issue: https://www.screencast.com/t/spksiMBE2u

Note: I did find and install an alternative plugin in the interim.

Hi.

My apologies for the delayed reply. The plugin is:

Duplicate Page

Duplicate Posts, Pages and Custom Posts using single click.
Version 2.1 | By mndpsingh287 | View details

Hi.

Thank you for replying. Here is a screencast that relays the issue at hand: https://www.screencast.com/t/TxcU92VjsZ2.

If you have any advise on why the adminimize plugin ignores hiding “Duplicate This As Draft” for the authors I’d appreciate it.

Regards,

Hi… I stand corrected.

In regards to the original issue, hiding the Add New button under edit post for authors this code does hide the Add new button but at a cost.

If an author previews or presses update the author sees a blank window with no indication as to what the problem is. If the author presses update the revisions are applied but the author would not know that that the authors taken to a white screen.

Note: The administrator of the same post does not incur this problem. This is limited to the authors.

This is likely a php 500 error. That something is occurring before line 100 as I immediately get the white screen and that the php code was stopped before the command was given.

If I remove the code below as provided by cedcommerce from the child theme’s functions.php file the problem goes away.

/* ---- DNOTE: wp.org Hide ADD NEW Button for authors ---- */

function hide_add_new_link() {

    if( is_admin() ) {

        if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

            $user = wp_get_current_user();

            if ( !empty( $user ) ) {

                // check if currently logged-in user has role: author

                if ( in_array( 'author', (array) $user->roles ) ) {

                    global $pagenow;

                    if( 'post.php' == $pagenow ) {

                        $css = '<style>';

                        $css .= '#wpcontent .page-title-action {';

                        $css .= 'display: none;';

                        $css .= '}';

                        $css .= '</style>';

                        echo $css;

                    }

                }

            }

        }

    }

}

add_action( 'init', 'hide_add_new_link');

It appears I’m back to square one and still looking for a solution to hiding the Add New Button.

Any additional advise is appreciated

Hi cedcommerce

Thank you for the continued input and participation.

Unfortunately the code, when placed in functions.php file for the child theme breaks the site.

I did hear back from the PLUGIN developer who in turn wrote this:

Hello

I found way on how to hide this metabox on your site. I’ve added new rule to Adminimize (The 3rd party plugin) to hide this whole box from authors view:

Please check it if this also works on your side.

THis resolves the issue of the Membership Access box.

I will still inquire about your code but it looks like everything is working.

Hi.

This code works perfectly! Thank you!

Re. the Membership Access. This is developed by WPMU’s Membership 2 Pro plugin. https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/membership/

This is the code as sourced by Firebug:

<div id="ms-membership-access" class="postbox">
<button class="handlediv button-link" aria-expanded="true" type="button">
<span class="screen-reader-text">Toggle panel: Membership Access</span>
<span class="toggle-indicator" aria-hidden="true"></span>
</button>
<h2 class="hndle ui-sortable-handle">
<span>Membership Access</span>
</h2>
<div class="inside">
<div id="ms-metabox-wrapper" class="ms_metabox ms-wrap">
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
</div>
</div>

I tried Writing custom CSS

div.inside {
   display: none !important;
}

This did not work.

Any suggestions you may have re the Membership Access pane would be appreciated.

Hi cedcommerce and thanks for participating on this thread.

I was able to hide the New menu using this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/adminimize/

It’s pretty good. It does much of what I want.

I’m still unable to hide two components on the dashboard end from authors.

The “Add New” post button when editing a post.

The “Membership Access” pane.

Here is an example screen shot:

https://162.144.73.104/~taggedbyanangel/wp-content/uploads/ss_edit_post_hide_add_new_button.jpg

Again I want to hide these functions from Authors.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Sorry, I left this out. This is the article I wrote with screen shots and links re. the solution. Hope this helps.

Hi.

I ran into the same problem and found a very simple solution. I wrote about it here: .

Install Simple Custom CSS or similar plugin

Simple Custom CSS is an easy-to-use WordPress Plugin to add custom CSS styles that override Plugin and Theme default styles.

Add this CSS rule to hides the post date:

.mobile-theme .entry-date {
display: none;
}

Note: .mobile-theme is the body class for the Jetpack Mobile Theme and .entry-date represents the date field.

That’s all there is too it. Try it out. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks for replying.

Re. PP Standard. It’s really meant for very few products and yes it is easy to accept credit cards this way without being a member…but you would not want to generate a unique button for each of 80 or 800 or 8000 products. PP Standard is really meant a few products.

I have had many problems getting a Blue Host server to be PCI compliant in the past, thus my desire for processing payments on a remote sever.

This wraps me back to the Topic at hard. To reiterate: is there a plugin that will enable me to process payments with PayPal Advanced when using WP E-commerce?

Y/N?

Hi alphaalec.

Thank you for the reply.

I I found that the nav bar works at cha-chachic.com but only if I am not logged in. For whatever reason it works when logged out of the dashboard but is inactive when I am logged in.

I was able to duplicate this partial functionality by replacing the js folder of JWJ with the ch-chachic site so it’s progress and I thank you for the advice.

If you or anyone else has a clue why it becomes disabled when I login to the dashboard I’d appreciate hearing from you.

Side note: disabling all active plugins does not seem to help.

Hi Ravi.

Neither reinstalling WP nor turning off all of the plugins does the trick.

I’m on a dedicated server with a lot of resources. I wouldn’t think that is of issue.

Note: this is the source code for the nav bar if that is of any help:
