I got it to work as follows — in mu-plugins directory, my superAdmin.php script looks like this: <?php function check_for_superAdmin($user_login, $user) { $current_user = get_userdatabylogin($user_login); if ( is_super_admin( $current_user->ID ) ) { // do these things } else { // do other things } } add_action( ‘wp_login’, ‘check_for_superAdmin’, 10, 2 ); ?> Hope this helps … Read more
You might be able to use the filter user_has_cap which is used when checking for a particular capability (found in /wp-includes/class-wp-user.php in has_cap): /** * Dynamically filter a user’s capabilities. * * @since 2.0.0 * @since 3.7.0 Added the user object. * * @param array $allcaps An array of all the user’s capabilities. * @param … Read more
The code below adds the counts for user roles. It’s commented pretty well to explain what’s happening. It should give you a good starting point for further customization (maybe you want to hide 0 counts, change the HTML output, etc.). function comments_shortcode($atts) { $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); extract( shortcode_atts( array( ‘id’ => ” ), $atts ) … Read more
I’m assuming you want to hide the author page on the site itself (and not in wp-admin). To do that, just create a new template file called author-{$id}.php, where {$id} is replaced by the ID of the author you want to hide. So if the author ID is 6, the template file should be called … Read more
When you use map_meta_cap with a custom post type (e.g. CPT book), the capability delete_book is not automatiqualy added to administrators. then you need to use add_cap to add it https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_cap
Though may not be intuitive, one needs the capability edit_others_posts to make posts sticky. If you don’t want a user to have that ability just remove the edit_others_posts capability from the user.
I think its possible, I have wrote a code in functions.php in the theme and its working fine. If there someone could make it better 😀 We have a custom meta for each user and that could be done using ACF. Admin only can set that meta to the user (beauticians). I have 2 custom … Read more
It looks like it is possible. Sticky posts are stored as array of IDs in an option called ‘sticky_posts`, and you can modify options using hooks, so… There is a chance that something like this would work: function fake_sticky_posts_for_author() { $user = wp_get_current_user(); if ( get_current_user_id() && in_array(‘author’, $user->roles) ) { // Return the IDs … Read more
Post types in WordPress have a list of capabilities that govern permissions surrounding them. These are: edit_post read_post delete_post edit_posts edit_others_posts publish_posts read_private_posts read delete_posts delete_private_posts delete_published_posts delete_others_posts edit_private_posts edit_published_posts create_posts Internally each post type matches these to the actual capabilities that can be given in WordPress. Most of the time these have the exact … Read more
It’s not a good idea to modify plugins if you can help it, as the plugin may be upated and you will lose your changes and need to redo them. Fortunately, that is not necessary in this case anyway, as you can the filter active plugins option instead. You will need the plugin slug for … Read more
