Users that are only assigned to your event_admin role, don’t have the upload_files capability, needed to display the featured image meta box. Here’s the relevant code from the core: if ( $thumbnail_support && current_user_can( ‘upload_files’ ) ) // <– Notice this check add_meta_box( ‘postimagediv’, esc_html( $post_type_object->labels->featured_image ), ‘post_thumbnail_meta_box’, null, ‘side’, ‘low’ ); Note that if … Read more

EDIT Don’t you have your capability mapping array keys/values reversed? e.g. you have ‘edit_posts’ => ‘edit_listings’. Shouldn’t it instead be ‘edit_listings’ => … Read more

Check the ticket here for more info –> https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/31383 Nevertheless there is an alternative way using get_objects_in_term $taxonomy = ‘shop-category’; $users = get_objects_in_term( $term_id, $taxonomy ); if(!empty($users)){ // WP_User_Query arguments $args = array ( ‘role’ => ‘shop_manager’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘orderby’ => ‘user_registered’, ‘include’ … Read more

So all we need to do is remove anything that doesn’t have to do with employees and filter for employees with a certain meta value. First thing’s first, whenever a new user is registered on the admin side … Read more
Almost the same approach One Trick Pony has chosen, but I am using translated names and uasort() (to preserve the keys): add_filter( ‘editable_roles’, ‘t5_sort_editable_roles’ ); /** * Array of roles. * * @wp-hook editable_roles * @param array $roles * @return array */ function t5_sort_editable_roles( $roles ) { uasort( $roles, ‘t5_uasort_editable_roles’ ); return $roles; } /** … Read more
You need to use the action hook pre_get_posts. See the comments for details and modify the Custom Post Type(s) to your own: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘filter_cpt_listing_by_author_wpse_89233’ ); function filter_cpt_listing_by_author_wpse_89233( $wp_query_obj ) { // Front end, do nothing if( !is_admin() ) return; global $current_user, $pagenow; wp_get_current_user(); // http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-a.php if( !is_a( $current_user, ‘WP_User’) ) return; // Not the … Read more

The Role Scoper plugin can enable this.
Yes, just filter ‘user_has_cap’. You get an array with the current capabilities that you can change without touching the database. Sample Code add_filter( ‘user_has_cap’, ‘wpse_53230_catch_cap’, 10, 3 ); /** * See WP_User::has_cap() in wp-includes/capabilities.php * * @param array $allcaps Existing capabilities for the user * @param string $caps Capabilities provided by map_meta_cap() * @param array … Read more
