Selective Member Access to Plugins

Hi,

I’m very interested in your product and have done some searching and watching of your tutorials but can’t see if this is possible.

I want to setup a site which utilises a few 3rd party plugins for certain functionality, and each user access level will have increasingly more access to administer these plugins. As a user Access Level 0 they can use the site and the standard user interfaces from these plugins, like a normal website. At User Access Level 1 I’d like to allow these paid users to get unlimited access to use the admin section of one of the plugins. For example, they get access to the “Add Map Location” which is a admin page under WP admin menu in their profile as part of this plugin, but maybe not the “Manage Locations” page. For User Access Level 2 they get access to yet another plugin and some of its features, and so on.

Is this possible, or do I need to use another plugin to control access to admin menu sections.

Thanks
Dean

Hi Dean.

s2Member doesn’t manage the access in the admin side of WordPress, only to content in the front side.

If the admin menu access is managed with WordPress capabilities, you could try customizing the s2Member roles so they have the capabilities that would allow what you’re trying to do. Use something like the User Role Editor to customize them: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/

I hope that helps. :)
