    I want to allow access to the ‘hide shipping’ plugin to the regional manager role. I checked the member plugins option but I cannot find the option to allow the access.
    By enabling all the options in the members plugin, almost all access will be granted to regional managers, including settings, page/post edits, etc. However, I don’t want regional managers to have this level of access; I want to restrict the regional manager role further. I want the ‘hide shipping’ option but not the others.

    I believe you should check the required capabilities with Hide Shipping plugin support team.

    Hi @devformtesting,

    Members is not an “admin access” plugin. It simply allows you to assign or remove capabilities from roles. It’s up to third-party plugin developers to define custom capabilities so that you can control access with a role management plugin like Members.

    We don’t know the plugins’ capabilities. You’ll need to look through the plugin and find all the capabilities which is not what we do. You’ll need to talk to the plugin developer about this. Ask them what the capability is that you need. Just keep in mind that if that cap is manage_options, it’ll give users access to core WP setting screens and other plugins.

    Hope you’ve got the idea.

    Regards,
