Custom Capabilities always returning true

I have implemented a simple redirect for Administrator users that do not have the cc of mcfddashboard, but for administrator the current_user_can always returns true for any type of custom capability.

current_user_can(‘access_s2member_ccap_asdf’)

current_user_can(‘access_s2member_ccap_blabla’)

current_user_can(‘access_s2member_ccap_*’) will always return true

Do CC work on Administrator users please?

Hello Roderick,

I believe ccaps don’t work on admins, only on users. :/

Thanks Eduan,

It would have been very nice of S2 to specify this limitation :)

Any idea how I can limit only specific Admin users from access the wp-admin area please?

Thanks again Eduan

Hi Roderick.

s2Member never applies restrictions to admins. If you need someone that’s like an admin, but with restrictions, you’d need to create a new role and give it all the WordPress capabilies, except for the ones you don’t want him to have. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/

I hope that helps. :)
