WP 4.4 – "You are not allowed to manage these items."

Since you’re using a beta, you might as well use a beta of WC as well to compensate. Because current release is not fully compatible with WP 4.4 beta. We’re refining and fixing issues from now leading up to WP 4.4 public release.

No worries – just letting you know

Same issue. Using official release (as of today), not a beta. This is a real problem. I can’t progress. What’s the ETA on getting this fixed?

Confirmed that it still exists. Not sure why you guys don’t take these things seriously. People being unable to edit attributes is something you should be testing before an official release.

Confirmed. Today after update i can’t edit any attributes

A quick fix (till an update for WooCommerce is available) is to open /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-post-types.php and change line 187 from
'show_ui' => false,
into
'show_ui' => true,

This fixed the problem for me. Hope WooCommerce will fix this in the next release.

:(((

h_ashuri2007 did you just not read the above replies? We’ll be fixing this shortly but jeffrey-wp solution will work for now.

To confirm, this was fixed in master a while back but was not cherry picked into 2.4 branch. https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/pull/9235/files

This has now been cherry picked so we’ll push an update out later today https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/commits/release/2.4

In the meantime,

A quick fix (till an update for WooCommerce is available) is to open /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-post-types.php and change line 187 from
‘show_ui’ => false,
into
‘show_ui’ => true,

or if you’re just adding attribute terms, you can do so from the edit product screen, attribute tab, where you’ll see an ‘add new’ button.

Thanks

jeffrey-wp, thanks! Now i can edit my attributes. Now i will wait for WooCommerce update. This is good lesson for me. Always backup before update.

-Thank you mikejolley :))))))

I was able too apply this fix in order to add more attributes however when I apply the new attributes to a product I do not see them on the product page. Will this be resolved when there will be an update? Or is this a totally unrelated issue I have?

Thanks!

Mike Jolley.

I am a novice. Can you tell me how to get to this place?
open /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-post-types.php

to change line 187 from
‘show_ui’ => false,
into
‘show_ui’ => true,

Thank you!

@ jmbillman this was already patched in the update.
