You will have to do something like this: function hide_buttons() { global $current_screen; if($current_screen->id == ‘edit-post’ && !current_user_can(‘publish_posts’)) { echo ‘<style>.add-new-h2{display: none;}</style>’; } } add_action(‘admin_head’,’hide_buttons’); See: http://erisds.co.uk/wordpress/spotlight-wordpress-admin-menu-remove-add-new-pages-or-posts-link for reference
Here’s a solution that worked for me: http://thereforei.am/2011/03/15/how-to-allow-administrators-to-edit-users-in-a-wordpress-network/ Pretty elegant and doesn’t involve messing with core.
Okay here we go. It is a bug in WordPress itself. I have already shortly explained the issue in my question, so either have a look at it or check out the ticket linked above for more details. Until the issue is properly resolved I propose this dirty, dirty hack. It is based off the … Read more
