Allow a user or role to view drafts and previews, but not other admin privileges?

Figured out an easier way. I gave them the edit_other_posts and edit_other_pages role capabilities, and then blocked their access to the admin area using the following: add_action( ‘init’, ‘eri_block_nonadmins_init’ ); function eri_block_nonadmins_init() { $current_url = eri_get_current_url( true, false); if ( (!current_user_can( ‘administrator’ ) && !( defined( ‘DOING_AJAX’ ) && DOING_AJAX )) && (is_admin() || $current_url … Read more
