I think the plugin include the possibility with one check for rights, for a capability. You see in the source of the plugin, that he include the menu items, if the user have the capability edit_theme_options. That makes not so easy for you to change this in different roles.

I don’t think what you want is URL rewriting. If I understand correctly, what you want is to restrict access to certain pages, posts, categories, etc., based on the current user’s role or capabilities: “If logged in, do something. If not, do something else (like prompt to login or register).” Modifying the output/behavior of a … Read more
