Admin Menu Editor Pro (Business) 2.24.1

Fixed a few bugs and plugin conflicts introduced in version 2.12 that could prevent certain roles from editing some or all users. This issue was related to the new “editable roles” feature. The default settings were too restrictive for some sites that use custom capabilities and the feature was not compatible with bbPress roles.

Added

• Added “editable roles” settings. You can use these settings to control which roles a user can assign to other users. Additionally, this feature will prevent the user or role from editing users that have any non-editable roles. By default, a role can only assign/edit those roles that have the same or fewer capabilities.
• Added a new section to the “Roles” tab that lets you change user roles, including the ability to assign multiple roles to one user.
• Added the ability to change menu separator color, size, and margins.
• Added an option to disable WPML support.
• Added an option to hide the WordPress logo when Gutenberg is in fullscreen mode.

Fixed

• Added a workaround to deal with plugins and themes that create invalid, non-string capabilities. Previously, if another plugin used a capability like false (the boolean value, not the word) when registering a custom post type or taxonomy, the “Roles” tab would be empty and unusable.
• Fixed menu colors not being applied to menus that have an ID that contains special characters like “&”, “/” and so on.
• Fixed the browser freezing for a long time when pasting a very large block of code into the “Add custom admin CSS” text box.
• Fixed custom menu colors not being applied to the icon of the currently selected menu item.
• Fixed a minor WP 5.5 compatibility issue where some of the boxes shown on the plugin settings pages were displayed incorrectly.
• Fixed a bug where hidden plugins were still visible under “Dashboard -> Updates” and were included in the number of updates shown in the admin menu, Toolbar and other places.
• Fixed a conflict with WP Job Manager where activating Admin Menu Editor made the hidden “Dashboard -> Setup” menu visible.
• Fixed a browser warning about cookies using “SameSite: None”.
• Fixed a conflict with plugins that use a different, incompatible version of the jquery-cookie library. For example: Participants Database Field Group Tabs.
• Fixed a bug where it was impossible to assign any capabilities to a role that didn’t already have at least one capability.

Changed

• The “hide all admin notices” option now also hides notices that use the core update notification styles. For example, it will hide this notification: “WordPress X.Y is available! Please update now.”

Added

• Added a role editor. You can assign/remove role capabilities, create custom roles, delete roles, and more. This is a new and complex feature. If you notice any bugs or other issues, please report them.
• Added the ability to add custom CSS to the WordPress admin. To enter your CSS code, go to the “Tweaks” tab and find the new “Admin CSS” section. You can add multiple CSS snippets and enable/disable each snippet for specific roles or users.
• Added a “reset permissions” toolbar button. It resets all menu permissions and visibility settings for the selected role or user to the defaults. This doesn’t affect custom permissions applied by other plugins. To display the new button, click the “V” button on the right side of the toolbar.
• Added “Title” and “Content Editor” options to the “Meta Boxes” tab. They let you hide the post title field and the main post editor, respectively.
• Added a the ability to hide specific Gutenberg blocks from roles or users. This feature is in the “Tweaks” tab.
• Added an option to hide the Gutenberg options menu. This is the “more tools & options” menu that you can open by clicking the three vertical dots in the top right corner of the editor.
• Hiding the “Format” and “Publish” meta boxes now also hides the corresponding rows in Gutenberg’s “Status & Visibility” panel: “Post Format” and “Publish”.

Fixed

• Fixed admin notices being briefly visible even when the “hide all admin notices” option was enabled.
• Added a compatibility workaround for MailPoet 3. Custom menu colors and FontAwesome icons will now show up properly on MailPoet’s admin pages.
• The hidden “getting started” menu item created by the plugin Extended Widget Options will no longer become visible when you activate Admin Menu Editor.
• Slightly reduced the chance of encountering a race condition when saving meta box settings.

Changed

• Reduced the amount of space used by plugin visibility settings. This change will take effect the next time you save those settings.
• Extended the “compress menu configuration data” feature to use ZLIB compression in addition to menu data restructuring. This greatly decreases the amount of data stored in the database, but increases decompression overhead. Configuration compression is disabled by default. You can enable it in the “Settings” tab.
